Robert,
I have been in your same shoes at times and you have to look at it in a very detailed way as opposed to the online resume application spray and pray. Some of those automated systems will kick your resume out before it gets looked at. If you have not already, try some of these things.
1. Tailor your skills with Key words for a position even if you have to make several different versions and cover letters.
2. Find a key recruiter on LinkedIn or through searching to follow up directly with r via email or phone call and be ready to talk about things you already researched about the company.
3. Research the company and think of how you could help solve some of their current challenges and include that in a cover letter.
4. Try these tactics with military friendly companies, recruiters, job fairs, and veterans on LinkedIn or Rally Point in your area.
Hope this helps brother, Stay up man, You will land that job!
Best,
Kevin
