Session Highlights

DISCUSSION TOPICS:

  • The State of Tech Hiring: What's Real, What's Next
  • Unpack the “No-Hire/No-Fire” Mindset and What it Means for Growth
  • Identify Tech Sectors with Real Momentum 
  • Explore Strategies to Maintain Credibility and Advance your Career
  • Learn Why Referrals & Networking Now Outperform Job Boards by 40%

The tech job market is entering a new phase — one defined by slower hiring cycles, evolving expectations, and a redefinition of what “job stability” really means. In this session, we’ll unpack the trends shaping how both leaders and tech talent navigate opportunity and risk in 2026.


Join Motion experts as they take a data-driven look at the current state of tech hiring: where the headlines end and where the real opportunities begin. You’ll walk away with practical insight into how to stay credible, connected, and competitive in an unpredictable market.

From hiring managers under pressure to freeze headcount to job seekers questioning what’s real online, trust and transparency are becoming the new currency of the tech labor market. This session will help you separate signal from noise — giving you the clarity and strategies to navigate change with confidence.

POWERED BY

Chris Walek

Vice President, Sales & Operations,  Motion Recruitment

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr

Currently I oversees sales & operations of Motion's Philadelphia and DC offices, focused on delivering talent for our clients across full-time, contract and professional services. I am still hands on with all aspects of the sales and recruiting process, and oversee the training and development of ~60 people. I have helped structure our CRM, built out sales templates and tools, spearheaded the nationwide implementation of new tooling and AI systems, consistently ranked at a top performer on my own desk, all while still getting home to my wife and pup (and million hobbies).

Greg Olsen

Executive Director, Motion Recruitment

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr

My work in journalism, public relations and recruitment has helped me connect individuals and ideas across a variety of platforms and for a multitude of purposes. Through well-crafted content and simple interactions, my professional goals include building lasting teams capable of stretching the limits of what they thought was possible.


In my personal life, my ties as a writer influence how I view the world. With everything I do, I try to be passionate and let the natural characters who have shaped my life find new homes in the styles and mannerisms of my work. When I'm not working, I enjoy spending time outdoors and attempting to reclaim my ever-worsening golf game.
