Are you "just" doing normal applications? or have you tried to spend a day or two looking at a specific product, and sending your thoughts/designs to the company? Product Designer in NY, when you don't live in the US might be too narrow. Just remember. It's always up to you. With your skills you can get a job any day. Which means, keep going for what you specifically wants, but just accept the consequences (takes time). If you can't accept the consequences, seek other jobs (e.g. other roles or cities). It's on you :-) Complaining or feeling down adds nothing to your life. Easier said than done. I know! So accept the process or hunt something else
