How can my resume be more competitive?

I don’t know what I am doing wrong (I suspect my projects are lame). Any constructive criticism is welcomed!

80 applications, 3 screening calls. What am I doing wrong?

I've sent around 80 applications. About 70–80% never even get viewed (I checked the visa sponsorship box). I've had 3 screening calls, but they usually lose interest once they find out I need visa sponsorship. My undergrad is from a top a university here, and my master's is from the top university here (in the top 50 globally).

That said, I also think my resume is pretty terrible and all over the place(genuinely crashing out feel like I've spent my life doing a bunch of nothings, feel like the bottom of the barrel).

I need some constructive criticism. Should I build better projects? Focus on one specific area instead of doing a bit of everything? Try to get an AI internship at an MNC? What exactly should I be improving?

I'm also thinking of shifting my focus from full-time roles to contract or part-time work. I honestly just want to make some money at this point. My goal isn't anything crazy, I’d be happy with contract or part-time work that pays around $1k/month(rent basically).

Would appreciate honest, constructive feedback.
