The answer really comes down to individual assessments.” Lisa Dillon, vice president of workforce development for Goodwill Industries of Central Oklahoma, agreed with that sentiment. “We live in a city and state with extremely low unemployment,” Dillon said. “The labor market is getting tighter and tighter which means we have to consider candidates we haven’t considered before. These are people who want to work. They want a better job so they can feed their family.” The event also included an expo that allowed businesses to speak with fair chance hiring organizations. Exhibitors included Action Group Staffing, Diversion Hub, Moore Norman Technology Center and Hope Community Services, among others.
