The Challenge
Here’s what happens when a company tries to hire a security leader:
Overwhelming Applicant Volume: Posting for cybersecurity leadership roles attract a high number of applicants, however most lack the required expertise. Even worse, internal recruiting teams rely on outdated pattern-matching techniques to identify true security leadership talent.
Rapid Industry Evolution: The dynamic nature of cybersecurity makes it challenging for internal recruiters to stay current and understand the nuances of the latest skillsets required.
Extended Vacancies Impact Business Security: According to the Wall Street Journal, the global cybersecurity talent shortage is estimated at 4.8 million professionals, and the U.S. alone is short 450K cybersecurity experts. Hiring delays not only prolong exposure to cyber threats but also overextend security teams, increasing burnout and risk.
Hitch Ignite eliminates this problem by delivering a curated, pre-qualified candidate target list in just 24 hours.
