One guy dropped out of a new hire training class and because of my persistence, on my tenth time calling the recruiter said that there was 1 spot and that I could have it! Have to agree that persistence is key. I literally called my current employer 10 times before I got hired.

Remember 30% of organizations are going to need someone, so it’s your job to initiate the introduction and chemistry match.
