get calls for interviews because your resume didn't make it to the recruiter's inbox.
If you're unemployed, any gaps between positions on your resume will definitely attract attention, and could potentially be the difference

get called for an interview even though you thought you were a great fit for the job, or you thought your interview was a great success, but the employer chose to hire another candidate, often the first thing you want to know is why you were not selected for the job.
I worked with one resume client who had a strong background in international shipping and was upset when he didn't
get a call for an interview for a food production position in which his transferable skills did not align.
