How are people like this getting interviews and my resume goes to some black hole...

I assume they just send out a million resumes. If you do thing correctly you might have a 10x chance, per resume sent, or getting an interview. So they send 100x as many. This is possible because they are putting in 1/1000’th of the effort.
There probability of getting an interview might still be lower than your probability.
