Songs to Get You Pumped for an Interview

You’re completely prepared for this interview.  You’re wearing the perfect outfit, done your research and have pens, paper and your resume packed and set to go.  You’ve done a mock interview and are ready to show them how you can help them meet their goals. You have plenty of time to get to the office, and there’s just one thing left to do:  shake off the nerves and get psyched about this opportunity.  Rock out to a high energy song that puts you in the zone.

rocky

Eye of the Tiger by Survivor

The Rocky song!  You have to love the syncopated beat of this song, which makes for fun, jerky dancing.  Play this one and ‘rise up to the challenge of our rival’.

Future’s So Bright, I Gotta Wear Shades by Timbuk3

Why is your future so bright?  Because you’re going to ace this interview!

Walking on Sunshine by Katrina & The Waves

Katrina & The Waves sing a lot of fun ‘wooah’s and ‘hey yeh’s that warm up your voice if you sing along, so it’s nice and clear when you greet the interviewer.

eminem

Lose Yourself by Eminem

Eminem’s lyrics tell the story of a nervous guy who conquers all.  It’s the perfect story to hear before an interview.

Gonna Fly Now by Bill Conti

The other Rocky song, and just as good.  This one has no lyrics but it’s so iconic and inspiring that you’ll practically fly into the interview room.

Imagine this music as the soundtrack to the movie of your life.  Now go out there and write a happy ending.

Which songs get you pumped up?
