What is going on with these job postings?

I’m a sr level designer with a good amount of experience and am having a hard time landing a role after being laid off in August. I’ve landed interviews and made it to a few later rounds, but no offers.

I keep seeing jobs like the one above being posted by the same companies that I have interviewed with posted monthly - it’s the exact job description and within 3 hours they will have over 100 applicants. This job attached, I made it to the hiring manager step, was even contacted by a recruiter via LinkedIn to interview for the job. This is large company, household name.

Can any hiring managers or others chime in on what’s going on here? Why are these jobs not being filled in like a week? There seems to be so much talent out there and generally when I have hired in the past, we are fulfilling a serious need in the org and need someone asap.

I’m at a loss at how complicated and out of wack this job market is. I’m a great researcher and will research the heck out of something to better understand it, but I just can’t understand this market.
