Does your major in data science align with your experience and align with the jobs you are applying for? Alignment is what it's all about.
Are you double-checking your letters. I noticed you don't use full stops, which may be a sign that written communication could be a hidden problem for you. Some hirers are my age and not of the texting era.
Also, I wouldn't be concerned about gender ratios. My husband has been in this area recruiting data and AI seniors for ages and he always assesses people based on merit.

From what I read further down, that your only work experience in the role comes from an internship? You may not actually have the experience for the roles you're applying for. I've hired for roles that require a substantial amount of experience in the industry, and the number of fresh graduates who are so sure they're a 'perfect fit' is pretty astounding. An internship gives you a taste of what happens in the workplace, but isn't extensive experience. And doing further study or short courses isn't industry experience.
I'd suggest perhaps targeting jobs that are better suited to your current level of experience, more entry level.

I'm shocked that anyone has actually used the phrase "gender balancing" primarily because it's illegal to base a job decision solely on a protected characteristic like gender

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?
