Then maybe it's my resume skills? I'm not getting the initial interviews, but then again it may be because it's around the holidays.

  Impossible to say w/o knowing more. This is a light time for hiring, as you state: lots of people are on vacation. While people do look for specific buzzwords, the better ones realize that you can teach anybody a framework and it's among the less-important aspects of the hiring process. I see a pretty even mix of Angular vs. React jobs these days. I have neither on my resume (but have been doing React for some time now) and get more requests for Angular than React--but that might also be because it's harder to find Angular devs.

    I appreciate you taking the time to respond. Having worked 11 years in IT in the Fortune 100 Corporate World and then giving a startup a go, I find myself a little like a fish out of water back trying to get this many years being on the other side of interviewing.

      In what way does that take you out of the running for jobs, though? In my experience there's nothing about a startup failure that indicates a candidate isn't suited for a development position.

        I wasn't referring to my startup failure, I was referring to not having interviewed or having done a resume for over 12 years. :D I'll get it done I have confidence in my ability to figure things out.
