Again, there is nothing wrong with that statement.
If someone told me they did workforce management consulting yada yada yada yada, I would tell them to tell me what their field is a lot quicker.
I work in banking. If someone knows more about that field and wants to know what I do, I let them know I work with high grade fixed-income municipal products including long-term/short-term (floating rate), taxable and tax-exempt bonds as well as derivative solutions. But very rarely do I just drop a bombshell like that on even my relatives.
So this isn't about language and thus technically what she said is correct. As for how much she knows, she isn't an expert and I do not see any criminal lawyers in this thread who are experts and disagree with what she said.

i work for an HR consulting and outsourcing firm. my firm does many things including the following
-Human resouce consulting

-payroll administration
-benefits administration
i specifically work in defined contribution plan administration and implementation. i would not say that i work in workforce management consulting even though the people in the offices one floor above me do. i do not know anything about it.
similarily, i used to work for General Electric. General Electric is a huge company that works in many different fields including regular household appliances, light bulbs, aircraft engines, medical technology, and network television (nbc). I specifically work in their industrial systems division in which they built basically large scale circuit brakers for for factories and nuclear power plants. but to be honest, i would say that i worked in factory planning and management, because thats what i did. to say anything else would be wrong.
i'm not trying to nitpick, nor am i saying that i am a criminal justice expert (where the heck did that come from anyway), but there is a HUGE difference between being a secretary and being a cop, DA, public defender, legal aid, paralegal, ect. I believe that is the point that Lil'Hannah and myself are making.
