On-Demand Webinar
About
Join the CoderPad team for a data-driven conversation that cuts through the hype and reveals what’s actually happening in tech hiring today — straight from the 2026 State of Tech Hiring report.
AI is everywhere in hiring — from sourcing to screening to technical interviews. But while adoption is accelerating, many TA teams are left with more questions than answers:
- Are we hiring fewer engineers, or just different ones?
- Is AI helping us improve signal,or making it harder to trust?
- What actually proves skill when candidates can use AI tools?
- And how do we modernize interviews without sacrificing fairness or quality?
In this webinar, we’ll unpack fresh research from over 650 hiring leaders and developers to show how high-performing organizations are adapting their hiring processes for an AI-augmented world without losing human judgment, trust, or candidate experience.
What You’ll Learn:
- Early insights from the 2026 State of Tech Hiring report
- Real examples of how leading teams are adapting interviews today
- Practical guidance on how to achieve faster, fairer, more human hiring in the AI era
