Sorry to pour more salt in your wound, but the job market is so tight right now. I have 14 years of experience in my field and an MBA and I cannot get an intwrview to save my life. Not saying we're the same, just commiserating. Wishing you the best!!

Don't get disheartened just change the way you do things ..sure will taste success
Just a suggestion... You said you sent your friend your resume to pass along. Maybe ask the friend to actually have a look at it and see if perhaps there's anything you could add or spice up to make it potentially stand out a bit more amongst the stack of applicants? There's really no harm in doing it. Sometimes there might be things you didn't think to add that they may be looking for. Why not try it out? Unless you've updated it recently and already gone over it, then disregard this ofc.
@Heroisthebest25 Awesome then!

@DancingStarGoddess But the problem is I did have an interview both technical and hr rounds last week Thursday and got completely ghosted after that. No update again.
@Heroisthebest25 Hmm, Maybe try this. I KNOW it's silly, but it does help. Maybe try a mock interview with that same friend who helped you with them generally asking you questions and things that would be asked during these interviews. Possibly even record it and play it back to yourself (even having your friend give you feedback) to see where you may be could improve? It might be easier with a trusted person and also seeing ourselves recorded sometimes, we become more mindful of things. Other than that I'd say just keep trying. Keep showing up, being enthusiastic and happy to be there like anyone else applying I guess.
