Be nice to headhunters.

Take calls from recruiters, and always call them back.  Build a rapport with some, and maintain it over the years.  You never know when one of them will have the job of your dreams.  Even more, you never know when you’ll need a job, and need somebody to quickly help you land it.  Even though you’ll probably never meet them face to face, become the best of pals via phone with a few headhunters.

It’s probably a good idea to be visible on LinkedIn, if you believe the Forbes story here:
