Built By Those Who Served. For Those Who Serve.
Recruiting Heroes LLC was founded with one goal in mind: to help those who have dedicated their lives to serving others make a successful, confident transition into civilian careers. Whether you’re coming from the military, law enforcement, fire service, or EMS, we understand the unique challenges you face. Why? Because we’ve lived them too.
We’re not just a career service. We’re a mission-driven organization led by a former law enforcement officer who know exactly what it feels like to hang up the uniform and ask, “What’s next?”
We’re here to answer that question... with tools, training, and support tailored specifically for heroes like you.

After leaving a life of service, our Founder, Colin Whittington, recognized a massive gap in career support for people transitioning out of uniform. Generic resume services didn’t understand the language of law enforcement or the depth of leadership and sacrifice that comes with a military career. The result? Qualified heroes were being overlooked in the job market.
Recruiting Heroes LLC was built to change that.
We started small... just one-on-one resume help for former teammates and colleagues. But word spread fast. Today, we’ve helped hundreds of veterans and first responders across the country turn their experience into opportunity.
Now It's Your Turn!Meet Our Founder
Colin began his career as a patrol deputy and quickly discovered the sacrifices our First Responders and Veterans make on a daily basis. 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 Association. 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 to help Veterans and First Responders with their transition to the private sector.Â
Colin is the Best-Selling author of Beyond the Thin Blue Line! In the book, Colin talks about his transition out of law enforcement and what other service members can do throughout their careers to prepare for a transition to the private sector.Â
He now works with candidates serious about finding success in the private sector.Â
