Thanks for all the comments so far everyone! I’m quickly getting the impression that I need to work on my resume. Also, I have never used a recruiter. I apply directly to the jobs through their website. Perhaps I need to rethink this approach as well. Again, thanks for the responses! Also I might have to bite the bullet and create a LinkedIn.

Creating a linkedIn account is also a great opportunity to reach out to previous colleagues and acquaintances, which allows you to ask if they know anyone who would be in the market for your skills.

"Hi <X>, I enjoyed working with you at <Y>, and am finally getting on linkedin, so let's connect."

And then if they actually respond to the message, tell them that you're looking for opportunities building XYZ or in a role doing ABC. It sounds like you've had a good career so far, and you probably have dozens or hundreds of people you've worked with over the years who may know somebody who would love to employ you.
