My experience says that applying through websites does not help at all. I had sent many applications over several months and I have 15 plus years' experience in my field with a major portion being in the ME. I never received a single call. It is all up to nationality and that too in some cases is refined to provincialism, connections, and sheer luck. Just keep on trying and ask Allah for help.
