Does Music Have A Positive Impact on Your Job Search?

Does Music Have A Positive Impact on Your Job Search?

Musical notes Lunching at Five Guys in Chicago, one of the things I really liked about the place was the music. The music was upbeat, energizing, rhythm and bluesy and loud...not so loud you couldn't talk, but loud enough that you noticed and could 'feel' it (and write a blog post about it some weeks later).

Watching one of my favorite television shows, CBS Sunday Morning, there was a story about Muzak and music's impact on consumers. Got me to thinking that if music 'entices' people to spend, I wonder if music might also be used to help motivate people to search for jobs -- you know, put them in a good place mentally to get 'revved up' for the ride?

What do you think? Does music inspire and motivate you to 'buy' yourself a job? What impact, if any, has music had on your job hunt? Is there a particular song that has motivated you into action that could be of value to job seekers?
