Ask HN: Am I unhirable?

I'm starting to think there must be something seriously wrong with me, or that I should just give up on this industry entirely. I've just gone through my fourth round of "everything going great, take home project looks good, then a three sentence rejection letter saying something about 'many qualified candidates' two days later".

Is anyone else experiencing this? I feel like I've never gone through this level of flakiness before. If anyone from the hiring side of things could shed light on this, that would be amazing. For reference, this is seeking a mid-level front end position in the bay area as a self taught developer with 4 years experience at various startups.
