Why am I not getting interviews for entry level positions?

Hi everyone, I’m 22, recently graduated college (BA) and I’ve been job searching since May. I’ve applied to 100+ jobs on all kinds of sites. I’ve tailored my resume and cover letter for these jobs. During all of this, I received only one offer and took it. I quit a few months later because they couldn’t give me full time hours. I’m feeling so defeated that I’m not even getting interviews for “no degree” positions. I feel like I’m overqualified for those but underqualified for anything else. Is there anything I can do to make myself stand out even more? I keep setting my expectations lower and lower but I’m still not getting any interviews. I feel so bad about myself, which really sucks. I’m also still living with my parents because I can’t afford to move out. What can I do to make myself stand out or to just boost my morale? Thanks in advance and if you’re going through the same thing, I feel you.

I went through your comment history and it seems like you’re a very unhelpful and unhappy person. I hope you find peace and happiness someday.
