So you feel getting typed will get you a job ?
In the near future we may see more of A320 rated guys than plain Jane CPL holders vying for jobs.
Now since you asked....
1) Ask your parents first then consider random people like me on pprune. I assume that money for the rating is coming from daddy's coffers. Aske em if they have the capacity to bear the loss should you not get employed soon
2)Study...Ensure you do not flunk an exam
3) Apply for ground jobs in airlines. It will help you
4) Clear your ATPL papers and orals.
5) Teach fellow pilots. It sharpens your skills.

My type rating was fully sponsored by an Indian airline. I got in by starting off with a ground job...No connections, No daddy's money......**** loads of hard work and determination and a little luck
