We are excited for this month’s luncheon on Friday, October 9, 2026. Our guest speaker this month is Kyndal Dugger, Recruiter with Accel Financial Staffing Solutions. She will be speaking on “The State of Legal Hiring in Oklahoma: What Firms Want, How to Stand Out, and Where Legal Careers are Going”.
Three takeaways:
- What Oklahoma law firms are looking for
• Hiring trends, hard-to-fill legal roles, and the skills/qualities firms value most.
• Key themes: experience, reliability, communication, organization, technology, and professionalism. - How legal professionals can stand out
• Practical advice on resumes, LinkedIn profiles, interviewing, and presenting their experience effectively.
• Show them the difference between simply listing duties and demonstrating actual value and accomplishments. - Where legal professionals can go from here
• Career growth opportunities and what skills can help them move from roles like legal receptionist → legal assistant → paralegal → senior/management positions.
• Give them a clearer picture of how to position themselves for their next career move.
