With “so many available jobs”…why can’t I find work that pays a living wage?

Was a general manager overseeing 24 employees in a luxury industry until the lockdown. Have spent countless hours looking for a proper job (livable wages, benefits) and customizing my cover letter for each job I apply to and I have yet to be even offered an interview. Wondering if many of the “available jobs” out there are companies fishing but not hiring OR menial jobs. Shocked how, despite my experience / qualifications, I cannot manage to find either an in person or remote (most ideal) living wage job in any industry. How are people managing?
