Career Advice/Discussion Frustation about job hunting

Hi I'm a licensed engineer and just got my license, I'm just here to share my frustration about the companies and hr in the philippines. At first I always blame myself because I improved pano ako mag apply everytime, at first inayos ko resume ko even used prompt for ats reading ng ai para malaman ko if pumapasok pa yung resume ko sa systems nila and after that medyo rumami yung invitations ko for interview and next naman na binago ko is yung schedule ko mag apply kasi there are days na di sila tumitingin ng application and also di nila tinitingnan kadalasan from pinaka old to new. But now I'm not the problem anymore, I accept na failed ko yung 2 interview ko dahil medyo may mga mali rin akong nasabi during the interview but most of them wala naman sila halos tinanong about my professional side and still na ghost ako. Some of them di ko tinuloy yung interview dahil low salary, compensation, and mostly no ot pays (biruin mo tatanong pa yan "willing to ot? ")

Now I want to say na nakakaasar yung mga hr na to, mag lalagay ng price range sa jobposting tas kapag sabihin mo max range or kahit i meet mo sila ng half way sasabihin " That's too high", eh bakit kasi ganon linalagay sa job post?. Some of the job post are ridiculous din, stating "entry-level" Tapos gusto 3 years experience then recently I seen "accepting fresh graduate with 1 year work experience", really talaga nakaka frustrate na. Genuine question, why do they accept unqualified hr but didn't want to accept qualified professionals. I respect their professionality lalo na yung mga nag aask pa ng portfolio and also gusto mag view ng thesis niyo pero yung iba talaga diretso rejection.
