Really getting difficult these days to even get noticed or a callback from recruiters. That too with 3 years of work experience, multiple certifications and a decent portfolio.

Can't understand what I'm doing wrong! Sorry for rant.

Hang in there buddy! You are not alone. The market is pretty bad right now. Trying applying from April 1st week.
Meanwhile here few things you can do to get noticed by recruiters.
1 Be active on your profession socials like linked In, Behance etc
2. Share your work or keep sharing your learnings on platforms.
3. Get in touch with recruiters for the companies you are interested in. Just try to have normal conversations with them.
4. Self review your portfolio or get it peer reviewed from your colleagues.

Hope that helps.

I need some legit feedback on what is it like to be a UXD at companies like Accenture?
They claim to do a lot of research oriented designs, as everyone. But is that really the case or it's like some other service based companies where the UX is almost vague, and happens mostly based on what the managers think to be good?

Does UX have any value or it's just drafting wireframes based on ideations by the managers and then UI designs?
