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.
