So the difference between the two is just luck?
I apply to a thousand job offers, get rejected every time => I'm stubborn.
I apply for job #1001, I get the job => I'm persistent.

I would say that you are persistent if you keep getting rejected but keep improving but using feedback and you would be stubborn if you don't change a thing while keeping being rejected.
Yes.
You were stubborn for applying for jobs beyond you.
Your persistence led you to finding that amazing job.
Got selected => lucky
Would not have had a chance to be lucky if not => persistent
