I have found that luck is quite predictable. If you want more luck, take more chances. Be more active.
Show up more often.
~ Brian Tracy
If luck is predictable and you have more luck if you take more chances, then how does this apply to your job search?
In a job search, luck means getting the interview, or getting the offer. You can’t get the interview if you aren’t noticed by the hiring manager so that he or she can ask you to interview you. If they don’t know about you, they can’t ask. And it typically takes a certain number of interviews to get a good offer–so to get good offers, you should plan to interview more than once (the more the better).
So, in order to be ‘lucky’ in your job search, you need to be more active and show up more often. This means contact hiring managers every day, so that you have more chances of being called for interviews. When you are offered an interview, take it even if you don’t really think that this job is for you. It may very well be that they’ll tell you something about the job you didn’t know that makes it much more attractive to you, or that they’ll interview you and realize you’d be a better fit in another position. These things happen (and those people are considered lucky when it does–but really all that happened was that they showed up). If nothing else, you’ll get interview practice that will make you better and stronger in future interviews.
