Colin Whittington has some unreal stories from his career in
Loudoun County, VA. He now specializes in helping coppers
find their second career when their police career is
over.
Colin is a former Deputy Sheriff, the Founder & CEO of
Recruiting Heroes, and will soon be the published author of Beyond
the Thin Blue Line. Colin started his law enforcement career as a
deputy sheriff with the Loudoun County Sheriff's Office in northern
Virginia. Within his first year on patrol, he received two Life
Saving Awards for two separate incidents. In 2019, Colin was named
the Virginia Deputy Sheriff of the Year by the Virginia Sheriff's
Assocation. Colin was then promoted to Sergeant and was charged
with running the recruiting, background investigation, and hiring
unit for the largest, full-service Sheriff's Office in Virginia. He
supervised a team of recruiters and background investigators. While
law enforcement agencies around the nation struggled to attract
talent, Colin's team led the agency to a record low vacancy rate
through innovative and strategic recruiting strategies.
Colin left law enforcement in 2022 and started Recruiting
Heroes LLC, an employment agency dedicated to finding amazing
careers for America's Veterans and First Responders. Colin and his
team work with candidates and companies around the country.
Colin is excited to publish his first book, Beyond the Thin
Blue Line. This self-help book is written for any police officer,
deputy sheriff, correctional officer, federal agent, or service
members who are considering transitioning to the private
sector.
