Is it okay to just walk-in to a public hospital's HR department or call the contact person (?NUM) on a job listing to get a job?

Been applying via queensland health careers for about 6 months now and not hearing back at all except from being rejected in the portal.

I do want to ask for feedback on why my application wasn't successful because a few times I felt that I did meet all the criteria and availability of the job they listed (casual RN in the specific specialty I had experience and training in), but I wasn't contacted at all. I'm thinking they may have some assumptions of me being a CALD and I wanna clear that up.

The portal lists the recruiter's name and a phone number (likely a NUM?) with no email. Would it be ok for me to call them and politely express my keen interest and ask if they've seen my application or whether they have any reservations about me? I know managers are busy and I'm afraid of being annoying. I also don't know if I am overthinking this and going down the social anxiety spiral...

Otherwise, is it okay to walk into the hospital's HR department and politely ask if they could match me with a job? Do they do walk-ins?
