Job Boards or iEmployed: Which Will Get Your Daughter a Job?
If your daughter is unemployed, job boards feel like the obvious solution.
They’re free.
They’re easy.
They promise access to thousands of jobs with just a few clicks.
But here is the truth most parents discover only after months of frustration:
Job boards rarely lead to actual job offers—especially in today’s market.
And while job boards may be “free,” unemployment is not.
On average, each day your daughter remains unemployed costs roughly $500, factoring in lost salary, benefits, 401(k) contributions, stock options, and long-term career value. If you are supporting her financially, you are directly absorbing this cost.
This article explains why job boards don’t work, why the job market is stacked against young adults, and why iEmployed is the smarter, faster, and ultimately less expensive choice for parents who want results—not hope.
The Job Market Is Worse Than Most Parents Realize
For the first time in modern history, college graduates are experiencing higher unemployment than the general population.
If you’re a parent trying to understand how to actually help your child get hired, start with our complete guide on how to help your child get a job.
This isn’t because they are unmotivated or underqualified. It’s because:
- Artificial Intelligence is replacing entry-level tasks
- Companies are eliminating training and junior roles
- Hiring managers are doing more with fewer people
- Each open role receives hundreds—or thousands—of applicants
Highly educated young adults are applying to hundreds of jobs and hearing nothing back. Not even rejections.
This is not a resume problem.
This is not an effort problem.
This is a systemic hiring problem.
Why Job Boards Don’t Work (Even Though They’re Free)
- Most Jobs Are Never Posted
Roughly 70–85% of jobs are filled through referrals, internal networks, and direct hiring-manager outreach, not public job boards.
Job boards only expose your daughter to the most competitive, most automated, least human slice of the market.
- AI Filters Eliminate Candidates Before Humans Ever See Them
Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) automatically reject resumes based on keywords, job gaps, short tenures, age signals, or non-linear paths.
Even strong candidates are silently filtered out—without feedback, explanation, or opportunity to improve.
- Job Boards Create Burnout, Not Momentum
Endless applying creates:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Loss of confidence
- A sense of failure
Parents often watch their daughter work harder each week—and feel worse each week.
At that point, “free” becomes very expensive.
Why iEmployed Works When Job Boards Fail
iEmployed was built for this job market, not the one parents remember from decades ago.
It replaces isolation, guesswork, and automation with real people, real strategy, and real accountability.
Below are the core services that make iEmployed different—and effective.

Your daughter receives private, one-on-one sessions via Zoom or Google Meet with current and former recruiters and HR leaders who have hired for companies like Apple, Meta, Microsoft, SpaceX, and more

Why Parents Choose to Purchase iEmployed
Parents don’t buy iEmployed because their daughter is incapable.

- Mental health deteriorates over time
- This job market is unlike any before it
iEmployed is:
- A one-time payment, not a subscription
- Easy to purchase—only an email or phone number required
- Available anonymously or with a supportive message
- Backed by a 100% money-back guarantee for unused sessions

Most importantly, it replaces helpless waiting with guided action.
Final Verdict: Job Boards vs. iEmployed
Job boards are free—but ineffective.
iEmployed costs money—but saves time, confidence, and long-term income.
In a market dominated by AI filters and hidden hiring, human guidance, interview readiness, and direct access to hiring managers win.
If your daughter has been applying endlessly and getting nowhere, the problem is not her effort.
It’s the strategy.
And that’s exactly what iEmployed was built to fix.
