The study's aim is to describe the staffing pattern of the Regional Government of the East Java Province and evaluate its effectiveness. This study follows a descriptive design with a qualitative approach, and observations, interviews, and documentation were conducted to feed into the data-analysis process. The results revealed a paradigm shift in organizing and conducting government bureaucracy, followed by changes in staffing patterns in local government.
