You’ve finally gotten that spring internship, congratulations! Although you’ve pushed through the application and interview process, there’s still a lot more to come. But, there’s no need to worry. You’ve got this (it’s why the company selected you after all)!

To celebrate your accomplishment, and to help you through your internship, we’ve compiled a playlist to help put the “fun” in functionality. While you start organizing your home office, or begin the process to travel to your new workspace, we hope this playlist can help you be less nervous and get you in the work mindset. 

Here is our Spring Internships Spotify Playlist:

#1 "Here Comes the Sun" by The Beatles

Of course, you’re starting your internship in the spring, so what better way to start the celebrations! Just like the sun coming out after a long day of showers, make sure to spread some joy in your internship by connecting with others. A lot of people are in the same boat as you so a little bit of kindness goes a long way. 

#2- "Butterflies" by Kacey Musgraves

Internships can be similar to the start of a new relationship. Jittery feelings and nervousness are quite common for a lot of interns as they start to get their footing. Listen to this song and embrace those nerves, because everyone has them.

#3- "Overdrive" by Conan Gray

If you’re a remote intern, it’s likely you’ll be blasting some music while working. Don’t worry about being serious and enjoy the moments you have in your internship. Work hard, and play harder.

#4- "I Ain't Worried" by One Republic

If you’re stressed after juggling various tasks, listen to this song to take away some of those nerves. It may be a bit hard to manage all the classwork and internship tasks you need to do, but make sure to take a break if you need to. 

#5- “Pocketful of Sunshine” by Natasha Bedingfield

Internships are all about making mistakes. No matter how big or small, it can be disheartening to listen to feedback. However, things can always get better and you always have the chance to improve if you work hard enough. 

#6- “Clean” by Taylor Swift 

When you do start an internship, make sure to clean and organize your dorm or home workspace. Whether it’s buying a bedside shelf for your dorm room, or cleaning up some papers in your home office, get into this new start with a new organized space to work at. 

#7- “Kings & Queens” by Ava Max

If you need a song to get you pumped before you start work, then this is the one to listen to! From the addictive beat and catchy lyrics, this is exactly what you need if you need a mini pick-me-up. 

#8- “Unstoppable” by Sia

No matter what your goals are by doing an internship, whether it’s growing a network or learning a new skill, it’ll definitely come true. It may be tough but the experience you will get will 100% help you in the future. 

#9- "Shower" - Becky G

It’s spring after all, so whether you intern in-person or remotely, you’ll definitely be seeing some rain showers. Just like flowers after a long day of rain, make sure to reap the rewards of the hard work at your internship. You deserve it after all!

#10- "Umbrella" by Rihanna 

Although it may sometimes feel like you are alone in an internship, you can find shelter with a mentor. Make sure to ask questions and don’t be afraid to request help. 

#11- "Physical" - Dua Lipa

Internships shouldn’t be an unfun occasion. While you should stay focused when you need to, your colleagues are people after all. Joke around and enjoy the moment, because you can make lifelong connections and friendships. 

#12- "It's Gonna Be Me" - *NSYNC

Internships are a great way to get some focused attention. Unlike regular jobs, you are able to get 1 on 1 with different team members and managers to find what’s best for you. Don’t be afraid to try new things and keep your eyes out for new opportunities within your internship. 

#13- "Higher Power" - Coldplay

It can be hard to stay positive, but it’s important to look at the bright side of things. If you’re stressed or upset, try writing down five things you did well today. It really makes a difference when you aren’t bogged down with negativity. 

#14- "Beautiful Day" by U2

Even if this internship wasn’t like what you expected, make sure to appreciate the opportunities you have been given. Whether it’s an internship at a start-up, or at a Fortune 500, any internship can help you learn something new.

#15- "Happy" by Pharrell Williams

Ending off this playlist with one of the most iconic spring tracks, you’re sure to love the positivity! Some internships can last less than three months, so enjoy them while you can.
