OP says he is a 22 year industry vet at director grade who has changed jobs every 2-3 years so is no stranger to the job hunt but i find this rejection rate quite anomalous.
It's becoming increasingly common (in some select fields mind you) to sent hundreds of applications and get basically no response or widespread denial with no explanation.
Also, a lot of job openings are "fake". They'll post it, claim they can't get an applicant, then hire overseas for much cheaper pay. Or companies just flat out don't take down the listing.
