Resume Over Coffee

Meaning if Recruiters personally contact you...but?

Nothing but rejections, no interviews, however, on several submissions, actual people reached out from companies. I'm trying to see something positive in the drowning failure by questioning why the message isn't just the automated brush off. Yes, I customized the twice professionally revamped resume for each role and include cover letters This query is primarily directed at the HR, Recruiters, Talent Acquisition members, however, feedback from ALL is welcome.

Thanks for the encouragement and I followed your advice. However, appears with each follow up, jobs are already filled...

Try not to see it as a failure! Something about your profile is catching their attention. Maybe their hands are tied and they don't have anything suitable for you right now. Thank them for connecting/reaching out and add them to your network. You gained some contacts that may help you further down the line in your search.
