Is the employment rate for all companies really that terrible now?

I've been applying for jobs for months, tailoring my CV, writing cover letters, and preparing for interviews, yet it feels like I'm getting nowhere. It seems every position has hundreds of applicants, and even entry-level roles demand years of experience. I know I'm not the only one feeling this way, but it's becoming mentally exhausting. Is the job market really this difficult right now, or am I just having a streak of bad luck? I'd love to hear what others are experiencing.
