Lots of places hiring sounds like these days, need to be dilligent about checking all the towns and sheriffs in state on a weekly basis. Some you can set alerts, but many you just need to hit the PD or city page and check. Make a date, like your first day off in a week to do this. Otherwise you might be appalled how many openings you miss even applying for.

Thanks guys. For a while, I was doing like 6 departments at a time & it got to be too much. I had to scale it back. I'm sticking with about 2 at a time now. I will hear back from Denver Sheriff soon if I'm in. I'm at the 5 yard line - I'll receive a letter of decision either this week or next.

I have done the same line of work for a majority of my life and need a change. The change will do me some good and i want so desperately to find my nitch in life.

Currently, I am a Corporate Security Investigator for a major corporation and its just not applealing to me anymore. Starting over "fresh" scares me to death and struggling with were to even begin, i have been with the same company for 12 years and was with the company before that for 15 years before they pulled up and move out of the state.

Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

You could probably transition into SIU (Special Investigations Unit) which is for insurance fraud. Might still get out into the field a bit, but it would be a lot less physically demanding. SIU pays decent as well.

The Best IRS (http://www.thebestirs.com/) an insurance company recruiting site contacts me occasionally asking if I'm looking for work or know anyone who does. You could probably call them, rattle off your skill set, and see if there is anything that fits.
