My mom will have to be off unemployment soon due to it being 6 months since she was laid off. I’ve been trying to help her find Senior Staff Accountant/Accounting Manager or Benefits Coordinator positions in the DC/MD/VA area to no avail. Does anyone know where i can help her find jobs that aren’t LinkedIn, Glassdoor, Google, or Indeed? Or have any other suggestions? Even without a job, the mortgage is still due. So I’m worried.

I would take a look at the company websites of relevant businesses in her driving radius. I have found that many companies are posting jobs individually, rather than on job boards.

This is so true! It's more budget-friendly and sometimes less hassle than to pay for multiple subscriptions to job boards.

I would suggest going to companies websites and looking at their career pages. Not every company utilizes job boards.

Have you looked into Zip Recruiter? There are often local job fairs that radio and news stations sometimes advertise too. I hope this helps. Sometimes putting a face and personality next to a resume really does wonders.

My mom is also an accountant and older. She thankfully employed but has been in between jobs before. She’s had luck with targeting smaller firms and start ups. She’s also got lots of interviews from indeed, given she doesn’t have a LinkedIn profile. I hope this helps some!
