Unable to job switch

Is anybody facing the same issue as me, not getting shortlisted anywhere. I am not sure what to do. I see my friends switching companies getting paid higher, they are coming from .net, python background. I personally feel that C++ jobs are getting reduced.

Although I am quite good at work still not able to find a better place for me that values my skills.

I am C++ dev having decent knowledge of Qt/QML. Please share your thoughts.
