Seems like to get a job these days, it's who you know and connection. Feels like CPA don't mean shit anymore since market is ton of people with it. Only so many jobs out there.
Have you tried going through recruitment agencies? A lot of jobs never make it into the public domain, many companies go straight to the recruiters to find the right candidate for them.

And yeah having a connection will get you in the door but an unqualified person won't be able to cut it there forever. CPA ain't no cake walk, it'll help you develop skills and qualities that'll be necessary for senior level positions.

Good luck with the test and job search!
