Looking for other job avenues to try and willing to put in the work!

As others have stated on the site, the job market is difficult. I've been trying now for almost a year and have put in resumes in so many industries, levels, freelance and even temp agencies and I keep hearing NO.

I'm making connections and when I do have an interview, give it my all. I've created projects, researched the companies, built 30-60-90-day plans and I'm back to square one again after months of looking.

I recently had a final round where they decided to change the role and I had too much experience for what their needs. The CEO submitted me for another position at the company but during that interview, it became apparent that I didn't have that experience. I kept trying to make it work as I need a job but while I had a lot of the qualifications,

I managed people doing those positions instead of implementing them. I contacted them today stating that while appreciative of the consideration, it wasn't the right fit as I knew I didn't have the skills to eventually be hired. I need to focus on getting a job after months of interviewing for the other role.

Every time I get knocked down as the song said, 'I get up again' and keep fighting. Am I doing something wrong that I can't even find a short-term role to hold me over in the meantime? I've tried a variety of creative agencies, temp companies, contract roles etc. but nothing seems to stick. I'd appreciate your advice.
