Yeah web dev basically got AI’d sorry buddy
Tech in general has been hammered, over 100k layoffs since January alone. Both of these jobs are going to have a.ton of applicants for every single posting. The special sauce is patience and perseverance.

And inside connections
Hopefully they aren’t getting confused by how you bury the lede. Start off saying you want cybersecurity, as indicated by the count of commenters who think you want web development
losing interviews like this usually means one of 3 things: the resume isnt matching the JD keywords, the formatting is getting mangled by ATS, or the top bullets just arent showing impact fast enough.
i had a friend in LA with a solid background get basically nothing back until we stripped out a weird two-column layout and rewrote the first 6 bullets around the exact terms in the posting. the difference was annoyingly immediate.
if you’re open to it, compare your resume against 2-3 roles you actually want, not just one generic version. that’s where the mismatch usually shows up. i’ve seen people use ResumeJudge, Jobscan, or SkillSyncer just to spot the missing keywords and formatting issues before sending anything out.
also worth checking if your portfolio link is doing the heavy lifting or accidentally hiding the best part of your work. for tech/entertainment, a clean recruiter-friendly first page and a very obvious “what i did / tools used / outcome” section can matter more than people think. what kind of roles are you targeting exactly, like producer-ish, product, or front-end / design?
