| Before the Badge: Officer Luis Samudio, Flight Attendant | https://www.phoenix.gov/newsroom/police/1949 | Police | | 6/13/2021 10:00:00 PM | | https://youtu.be/3feyVK3Fnu4 | Before the Badge: Officer Luis Samudio, Flight Attendant | <div class="ExternalClass1FE1F7009AA449CC848C27F334FAD59A"><html>
<p>
<em>Phoenix Police officers come from many different backgrounds, including different careers. The department's video series, ‘</em><a target="_blank" href="https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFNuct3MvVGa0aB67cIDS6PG4dPM9eNvE"><em>Before the Badge</em></a><em>,’ profiles some of those careers, and the diversity they bring to the department today.</em></p>
<p>
Officer Luis Samudio is part of the recruitment divison of the Phoenix Police Department's Employment Services Bureau. This division is dedicated to recruiting top talent for the future of Phoenix Police.
</p>
<p>"We want to recruit the ideal candidate," Officer Samudio said. "[A] qualified applicant that's going to represent the agency really well, along with the City of Phoenix, and then our leaders. It is a noble position. It's gotta be coming from the heart, from the mind, to want to do this type of career."</p>
<p>Day to day, Officer Samudio's job includes emails and calls with potential candidates, and then lots of community outreach—schools, job fairs, hiking trails, and gyms. Luckily for Luis, this kind of work, especially knowing how to talk to people, is something he's done in a job before.</p>
<p>"I was a flight attendant for America West Airlines," Officer Samudio explained. </p>
<p>Prior to serving the City of Phoenix, Officer Samudio was serving passengers on planes. For about five years he worked as both a flight attendant and a recruiter for America West. In addition to the perks of getting to travel all over, he said he learned some invaluable skills. </p>
<p>"I think that's probably the area where I started recognizing, or knowing, the importance of customer service in dealing with people," Officer Samudio said. "The good and the bad."</p>
<p>Around this same time, he also started a family. That's when he decided to look for work closer to home. Officer Samudio said he is who he is today because of where he comes from and what he did before the badge. </p>
<p>"What that taught me is how to be patient, sympathetic, empathetic to the people, and providing the service that I can as representing that agency or that company at the time," Officer Samudio said of his flight attendant career. "And that certainly has carried on to where I am at today."</p>
<p>Officer Samudio added that he does not take lightly the responsibility he now holds in helping find the next wave of people to wear this badge. </p>
<p>"Career experiences that others have had, or education, family backgrounds, is certainly important and critical in how we're going to deliver service to the community," he explained. "The fact that I have such a vast background, and bringing it to maybe work here, I think I'm a lot more sensitive to understanding where we're at today." <br></p>
