UK Cybersecurity Hiring Managers - State of Hiring 2026 & AI Impact

Cyber security hiring managers: how confident are you that your hiring process shows who can actually do the job? I’m inviting security leaders, technical interviewers and internal recruiters to contribute to CyberHire’s State of Cyber Security Hiring 2026 report. We’re investigating: • Which assessment methods hiring teams find most useful • How much technical-team time goes into evaluating candidates • Which skills are hardest to assess • How AI is changing the interview / hiring process If you’ve helped hire for a UK-based cybersecurity role in the past 12 months, I’d value your perspective. Whether your process works brilliantly or needs improving, we want to hear about it. You don’t need to use CyberHire or practical assessments. We’ll publish the findings and share a press release with cybersecurity and business news outlets. There’ll also be an opportunity to contribute expert commentary, with any named quotation agreed with you before publication.
