Struggling to break into Growth Equity

I have been struggling to break into growth equity for almost 6 months now - I haven't even gotten a single interview yet.

I am not sure if it's me or its the time of the year but I would really appreciate any guidance from someone because I have just run out of ideas (tried cold emails, recruiters, previous boss's contacts and my whole network)
