Have I been blackballed?

I was a contractor at JPM for 7 months before leaving for a perm role to join a European bank.

Loved working at JPM, but it was a contract job and I needed a perm position due to change in family circumstances.

Year and a bit later I’ve been applying for JPM permanent positions that strictly match my CV and not getting any interviews (Senior Associate/VP level) bar one which seemed like a tickbox interview where they’ve already got their man.

I don’t know if leaving JPM left a bad taste in their mouth and I’ve been blackballed ever since.

Am I over thinking things?
