I applied for 3 jobs and got 5 interviews. That was UK, where are you?
Easy answer is your CV might be poorly written.
I'm definitely no expert, but my CV is my contact info first, then one short paragraph describing myself, then a skills matrix of:
language | years | relevant sub things
e.g.
javascript | 15 years | react, angular, node, jquery
C# | 13 years | .Net Core, EF6, EF Core, ASP.Net
Then a history of work experience, with a 4-6 line summary of what I made or value delivered while in that job.

- Designed and Implemented purchase order system for core product in C# and SQL Server
- Headed up greenfield project of new invoicing product built with react + node

Then at the end a very, very short summary of qualifications
