Try to remove the emotion from the process. In the current labor market this is purely a numbers game. Crank up the apps and it improves your chances to hear back. The only other route is a referral through a professional network. Remind yourself that for any given job posting there are likely hundreds or thousands of applicants. It's absolutely not just you being turned down for an interview.

Thanks very much, I’ll need to contact one at the start of next week. How did you find a good one?
Try a recruiting agency. Find one that specializes in accounting and serves your area. This can be a good way to get placed full time or on a contract role which isn’t that bad. Moves quick and better than not having income. Pay is decent and some other cons but gives you time to look for something more permanent
