I Want A Private Sector Career
Are You Struggling to Find a Career After Law Enforcement?
The private-sector job market is more challenging than ever, and traditional approaches aren't working.
Here's what you’re up against:
- Low Interview Success Rate: The average job seeker submits 20+ applications to land just one interview.
- Long Wait Times: In 2025, most candidates spend over six months searching for a new role.
- Massive Competition: The average corporate job opening receives 300+ applications.
- AI Screening & Technology: Applicant Tracking Systems filter out 75% of resumes before a human ever sees them.
The result? Even highly skilled law enforcement professionals are struggling to find jobs.
We Help Officers Find Their Next Career
Making the jump from law enforcement to the private sector can feel overwhelming. I know because I was there myself when I left law enforcement. Rejection, confusion, and self-doubt can make the process feel impossible, especially when employers don’t fully recognize the value of your experience.
That’s why I created Recruiting Heroes. We’ve helped over 700 law enforcement professionals of all ranks successfully transition into high-impact careers in tech, leadership, security, sales, and more. With our proven guidance, personalized strategies, and insider insights, we’ll help you translate your law enforcement experience into a career you love.
Your next career starts here.
