Major Definite Purpose
I often read and even show YouTube of Brian Tracy here and one his well know phrases is What is Your Major Definite purpose. I think for the job hunt it is too general to say just get a job. You need to be a little more precise and define what and where you want to be. Does this sound like complete pretentious self help garbage? Perhaps it does. But if you aren't driven you will sit in your living room staring at the well or watching daytime TV and feeling sorry for yourself. If this is your gig then off with you.
No you need to plan constantly and look ahead and get better than the other guy looking for the same job. Be more knowledgeable have better interview skills. For instance the other day I was telling someone about how when I was job hunting I used to dictate into a hand held old style Dictaphone and they thought that was hilarious. If you are an interviewer do you want to speak to someone who sounds confident without sounding pushy with a level understandable speaking voice or to a mumbling fool.
No prizes there. this is World Cup Job Hunting Competition not kindergarten. There are 450K people out of work and a lot of them are looking for the same type of job as you. Dig Deep.
