Songs for job seekers

by Abhijeet on October 21, 2009

in Videos, communication

This is going to be a fun post – I invite you to join in and post your favorites :)

Starting your job search

Let's get it started, Black Eyed Peas

Obstacles are inefficient, follow your intuition, free your inner soul and break away from tradition.

Start me up, Rolling Stones

If you start me up
If you start me up I’ll never stop

To keep yourself going during your job search

I will survive, Gloria Gaynor

Oh no, not I! I will survive!
Oh and as long as I know how to love I know I stay alive.
I’ve got all my life to live, I’ve got all my love to give.
And I’ll survive!
I will survive!

Stayin' Alive, Bee Gees

You know its all right. its ok.
I’ll live to see another day.
We can try to understand
The new york times effect on man.
Feel the city breakin and everybody shakin,
And were stayin alive, stayin alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin alive, stayin alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin alive.

Eye of the Tiger (wonder why is this a favorite? :) )

So many times, it happens too fast
You change your passion for glory
Don’t lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

Tubthumping, Chumbawumba

I get knocked down but I get up again, cause nothing’s gonna keep me down.

Preparing for an interview

Lose yourself, Eminem

If you had one shot, one opportunity, to seize everything you ever wanted…One moment – would you capture it or just let it slip

I've got the Power, Snap!

Maniac brainiac winning the game
I’m the lyrical Jesse James

Which songs get YOU going in your job search?
