I have had a kind of similar experience. 5 years experience, feel underpaid so started looking for a job. Did hired.com, was contacted by about 20 companies. That turned into 5 phone screens, 0 on sites. 2 of the phone screens said I passed and were going to schedule an onsite but ended up ghosting me.
I also applied to about 10 other places directly but never heard back from any of them. Got contacted by Meta but then they cancelled my interview. Weird to me that everyone is saying that it is a white hot market but I can't even get an onsite.
Well, the root cause is likely the interest rate hikes but the proximate cause is that the economic environment has become drastically worse in the last ~6-9mo.
Tech stocks are down a ridiculous amount and funding for startups is now much harder to come by. Probably other factors I don't know about as well.
