Am I not getting interviews because I’m not attaching cover letters for roles that give you the option to attach additional documents but don’t specifically require or ask for a cover letter? I’ve always preferred tailoring my resume as best as possible and then trying to get it in front of the recruiter/right team/hiring manager through whatever means is time much better spent…

Sounds like you’re doing the right thing. I doubt lack of a cover letter is a blocker. More likely, you’re not matching the job description requirements perfectly. Companies have a lot to choose from these days.
