Could it be that you are applying for the wrong positions?

You haven't described the positions you interview for, so it's hard to say, but if you find the situation repeating over several jobs, it seems likely that you're applying for similar positions. If this is so, then you clearly need to stop applying for that specific kind of position.

Note that you may not realize they are similar positions, or what it is that they have in common and makes it "wrong".

If the JD says "JavaScript" or "CSS", I politely decline.

I can't discount the possibility.
