I have a coworker who is considered a "star", but treats me without respect

I hope you’re doing well. I am seeking advice from this network as I continue my job search journey. Over the past year, I have been actively applying for Human Resources roles in the United States. Despite refining my resume across multiple versions, tailoring cover letters for each application, and leveraging AI tools for validation, I have not yet received an interview opportunity. While I would like to believe that my background as a non-American woman of color is not a factor, the experience has been challenging and prompts me to reflect. If any of you have encountered similar obstacles and successfully navigated through them, I would truly appreciate your insights. Specifically, what strategies or changes helped you secure interview calls and ultimately land a role? Thank you very much in advance for your guidance and support.

She did the same BS to me last month for the newsletter I requested her input for. I sent her 2 FREAKING MESSAGES, & she never did respond, then criticized my newsletter after i finished it. She always does BS like this. I need another job ASAP. She picks & chooses what she wants to respond to, WHEN she wants to work, & WHEN she wants to be bothered. I hate it here. She sent a Slack message to my Director not too long after I sent my email & let her know what she had just finished working on and logged off for the weekend. She does BS like this all the freaking time & im sick of it. My Director does nothing about her behavior, sides w/her, & refuses to hold her accountable for anything. I need another job asap!! The job market is 1 million percent despicable right now. I have applied to countless places for the several months now, used ChatGPT to help me tailor my resume to the job description of the position I applied for, followed up with recruiters on LinkedIn who work for the companies I applied to just to get ignored. I am 1million percent drained, beyond weary, burnt out, & tired of either being ignored by recruiters, told that employers are "still evaluating applications" & it has been over 4 months since I applied, or not hearing anything back from recruiters at all. No one understands how terrible it is to work for a narcissistic Supervisor who is in cahoots with management and how she is constantly unresponsive when you have a question about something, & is unreliable in general. There has got to be a way out because this is pure misery. Im willing to take a temp to perm job at this point smh.

Job search success requires clearing your head of unsubstantiated myths. ❌ Using LinkedIn's "Open to Work" Banner Makes You Look Desperate ❌ The ATS is Rejecting Your Application ❌ It's All Just Luck ❌ Employers Should Talk to All Applicants ❌ Biases and "Isms" are Why I'm Not Getting Hired https://artoffindingwork.substack.com/p/myths-job-seekers-believe-or-are

For those recruiters who hate AI, I don't blame you! I got a first round interview for a position I really want. Unfortunately this was one of the first positions I applied to in my job search and I was using AI to help me get started (I've since learned about the hazards of AI for resume/cover letters). There was one issue with my resume I submitted for this position not showing two positions as contract/temporary (though this is reflected on my Linkedin profile). The second issue is that the cover letter I submitted referenced the wrong area for a project I had led (I work in accounting transformation and had a led a revenue project at a large company but only assisted in a huge lease project and the cover letter stated I had led the lease project). I would like to clarify this with the recruiter so I am not misrepresenting myself. Is this a good idea? If so, what is the best way to do this and should I do it before the interview? Thanks.
