Adonea.ai

A hiring service being built to match people to jobs on what they can do, with clear requirements and working conditions up front. It is aimed at people whose age, disability, neurodivergence, caring duties or career gaps get them overlooked.

Why I recommend it: Still in development, so there may be little to use yet. Check the site for whether it has launched and what it costs.

The State of the Black Labor Market

A free Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies brief (September 2026) on Black employment, wages, unemployment and the sectors driving the gaps.

Why I recommend it: Data you can quote. Useful if you are making the case for a hiring or pay decision and need a source rather than an opinion.

Mentra

Neurodiversity employment network that matches autistic, ADHD, and dyslexic candidates with employers seeking neurodivergent talent in software, UX, and data roles.

Why I recommend it: Built by neurodivergent founders. The matching process is designed around strengths rather than interview performance.

Tech Ladies Job Board

The Tech Ladies job board: vetted roles at companies that actively recruit women in technical and non-technical tech jobs.

Why I recommend it: A smaller board where a real person screened the employers. Worth more than a thousand raw listings.

How My Neurodivergent Brain Works

A first-person account of how one professional's neurodivergent brain works day to day, and what support and communication actually help at work.

Why I recommend it: Read this before you assume you know what accommodation means. Plain, specific and written by the person living it.

Blackstone Career Pathways

A workforce development program from Blackstone that creates career pathways, internships, and training opportunities inside Blackstone portfolio companies, with an emphasis on inclusive hiring and mobility.

DiversityJobs

A job board connecting employers with candidates from underrepresented groups, including veterans, people with disabilities, and women.

Why I recommend it: Employers who pay to post here are at least signaling intent. Still do your own culture research before you accept.
