It was so bad job hunting a couple of years ago. Took me months and months. I even used AI to help me write cover letters after a while. No one was reading them so might as well have no one write them too.
Productively, I hate to say it, but I think we've actually circled back to Boomer job hunting advice being good. I got my current job by attending local industry meetups, meeting a recruiter, and they got me face-to-face at a company which immediately hired me.
At this point, I'd just go for the most unhinged approach. Put on a suit, show up where you want to work, walk in and demand to meet the ceo or something. Tell him you're not here to waste time with "process", you're here to make some real money. If you aren't a white man, make friends with one and have them do this, then bait-and-switch the hire. Act like you've always been a queer black woman, it must be their mistake.
The time for asking to be hired is over. We're just taking the jobs now!
Actually the way to stick out is to do some basic research on the company that you want to work for. Enough to understand their business. Then tell them what skill or previous experience that you have that can help THEM. Never say anything like .. "you’re here to make some real money". It's about them not about you
