Reach out to people at these firms you apply to. Build relationships before a role opens up, talk to these people every 1-2 months without the intention of looking for a job there. When they have an opening reach out mentioning the opening, ask for advice and to hear more about their day to day. Do this with a few people at the same firm even if it's small.

Continuously build the skills you need for the role outside of work if you aren't getting it. Even if you don't get the first offer the experience will help on the next interviews.
