Numunu Staffing Celebrates Two Years of Service

Numunu Staffing celebrated their two-year anniversary on Friday, November 4.

The event began with a ribbon cutting by the Lawton Chamber of Commerce and a prayer by Pastor Mike Keahbone.

Chairman Mark Woommavovah and U.S. Representative Daniel Pae were also in attendance.

COO of Business Development at Numunu Staffing, Steven Mowatt, said they invited tribal leaders, partners, clients and other community leaders around Lawton, Oklahoma.

He has been with Numunu Staffing since the start of the business, going on five years now.

“Everybody here is kind. They want to try to better themselves, and Numunu Staffing is the perfect place to do that,” Mowatt said. “We can help you with your resume, help you get interview coaching, and get other soft skills that you may need for a job placement.”

Being a part of the staffing company for so long has led to a couple of success stories.

“One of my favorites is I had a candidate that he recently just had a baby, and we put him on a temporary position for a couple of weeks, and he did a really good job there, and now he found full-time employment,” Mowatt said. “We placed him somewhere else, and he's doing a really good job there providing for his family.”

He said Numunu Staffing is for everyone in the community, whether they’re native or non-native, and they offer a variety of services.

“We do…resume building, so even if you don't have a resume, we can build you one even though if you think that you don't have the experience, trust me, we can make one and make it look good for the hiring manager,” Mowatt said. “Another thing is soft skills trainings. We can hold those in our office, but sometimes we do refer out to our WIOA office, and then we refer to the Great Plains Technology Center as well.”

He said the impact on the community means there’s a broad view of the talent in Southwest Oklahoma.

“Having both Native and non-Native candidates gives us the option of presenting talent from across the board. Sometimes like our tribal governments may need tribal candidates so we can go there, but our other clients don't; they necessarily like we don't need tribal candidates per se, but we just need the best talent that you can find,” Mowatt said.

Staff members were recognized by the community and Comanche Nation for all they do at the event.
