ProGrad’s advice would be to take advantage of every opportunity that is thrown your way. Secure an interview? Why would you pass it up? You may argue that certain interviews do not fit in your sphere of interest so why bother attending? Have you considered that even though you may not want the position, just attending the interview could be vital to your next career?
Take every opportunity as experience and learn from these experiences. You never know what you will learn and take away and make you a stronger candidate for another interview. Who knows what opportunites could also arise from attending that oine interview? The possibilities are endless.
Keep your horizons broad, attend everything you can and keep your eye out for that rare experience or opportunity!
Looking for a job for some time now? Not sure why you haven’t received a follow up from your resume to attend an interview?

This will increase your chances greatly in securing the position you desire.
