Along with abovementioned reasons, police officers need to have diverse abilities and in a law enforcement setting, techniques used for selection must address this diversity. This study deals with the need for a competent workforce for police departments and examine various types of selection measures used in police recruitment. Using LEMAS, UCR and Census data, the study analyzes the variables affecting selection decisions of police departments in the US.
