Since I applied for the very same type of jobs I got interviews for back when I was looking, I doubt so.
But now you added work experience. It's possible your current job/work experience part of the resume is the problematic part.
Maybe they Googled your name and found social media sites that show you are a sassy know-it-all. Just like you showed when replying to people that are trying to help you in this thread.
The December word was a typo. My contract ends in June. It takes a while to find a job and I believe that if I want to start a new job right after my current contract is up, it's the perfect time to start looking. Maybe I'm wrong, I don't know.
I've also applied for in-state jobs and the result is very much the same. I'm not sure what to do, because I specifically stated that the contract ends in June and the fact that I got further experience shouldn't be too much of a problem, technically.
Well it is impressive and rare to be getting that many calls fresh out of college, so I'm not sure what was going on the first time around. Sometimes you just get a lot of interest at once. I think its because of your location (different?), or that most employers want someone NOW. I

If the work experience/current job isn't worded well on the resume, it could cause them to pass on you. HAVING the experience is 1 thing. Properly wording your work experience/accomplishments is another thing.

I see. This could indeed very well be the problem. I will most definitely change the wording and see how things progress from there.
Keep applying. Set a goal to apply to a certain amount of jobs a day.. Review each company so you know what their goals and structure, mission statement is all about. Just keep trying. Eventually employers will get to you. Whatever you do, dont bug HR....
I agree with this person. Keep at it, because it is really a numbers game at times. when I was employed and looking for work, it was a little harder to get a call back, but I eventually got several. When it rains, it pours.
Don't put an end date on your current job for the future. You are employed presently, put "present" as mentioned earlier.
The best advice that I can give you is attend weekly career development skills. You aren't getting great results on the job hunt, then you need to develop better job hunting skills.
