Sadly one of the best methods is to go to a headhunter. Last time I seriously looked, I had the similar problem. If I had one interview per 50 resumes I would be surprised. That said I had one occasion where the HR person from a company called me, 'I found your resume on xyxxy, you would be perfect for this job'. I responded, 'I agree that is why I applied for the job'. Never a follow up. The HR person was looking to 'FIND' someone, not follow up on someone who had already applied. Several times when I have run into this, I find recruiters somehow are able to convince companies to hire people they normally would not on their own. Recruiters will get your resume past the 'AI resume analysis machine' which will filter out most people. I do not like recruiters, because most, not all, do not have the morals I would expect.
