Your resume is too long. Try to fit it to a single page. When I worked at a FAANG I was once sent a list of 80 resumes to review. I didn't spend more than 30-60s per resume (recruiters often spend way less) and yours would take at least 5 minutes to read completely. This is what your resume could look like if shortened: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Lt9zJF119f2G-XDcyBKUOxj6o2X...

Also reach out to every single connection you ever made, previous work colleagues, alumni, even the person you briefly talked to in line at the cafeteria. Reaching out to anyone you ever shared a connection with will lead to better response rates than throwing your resume in the abyss that is called an online job posting.
