Need a little help from everyone here

I have been applying for jobs for 1 year. Many times I get ghosted, very few times I get response which are of rejection (of course). Around 15 response were for interview process in which in around 5 I had to develop something/add features to repos. Got rejections and ghosting. It hurts when I develop something for interview than get ghosted.

Just a question should I keep looking? I do have an option to work with my father in his shop but Since I studied for Software Engineer with 1+ full time experience and 3+ years freelance experience I wanted to continue.

Should I pause and hope that future opportunities will be better?

What do you currently know well in terms of software dev?

If you are asking for my experience in tech stack then - python, Golang, MERN stack, docker, AWS, PostgreSQL, Mongo DB, pytorch, ml algorithms, APIs integration. Also some knowledge of system design I have some repeating clients on upwork so experience related to how to handle clients.

I'd focus on Go. You consider yourself an expert in all of these?
