Job interviews are all about putting your confidence on display. Not only can crystals help release blockages in your throat chakra and enable you to speak assertively, but they also have a lot of other benefits, such as relaxing your nerves and giving you a confidence boost.

That’s exactly what you need to get that new gig you’ve been dreaming about, so let's look at some of the best crystals for job interviews...

Pyrite

Pyrite is connected to the solar plexus chakra which is the starting point for the energy that is responsible for your sense of self. Stability and confidence all flow from this location. And it goes without saying that a little extra self-esteem in an interview can go a long way.

Pyrite illuminates the higher self, increasing our potential. It is exceptionally good for dealing with imposter syndrome, which is one of the main problems associated with bidding for a new position.

Pyrite reminds us that we are worthy and enough. It recycles the wasted energy we would otherwise spend tearing ourselves down and transforms it into self-appreciation. No need to imitate another person; just be a better you. These attributes make it one of the best crystals for job interviews. 

Citrine

Citrine, like Pyrite, is connected to the solar plexus chakra, as well as the sacral chakra. Opening these chakras enhances intelligence and creativity.

Citrine is a mighty crystal associated with sunlight and illumination. Changing light into darkness gives Citrine the power to help create new beginnings.

Carrying it with you to an interview can help you respond to questions quickly and confidently. This ability is imperative during an interview so that you can leave a positive mark on the decision makers, so it’s no secret why this is one of the best crystals for job interviews.

Do you have trouble staying focused? Are you always getting distracted? Then you may want to utilize the power of Amethyst. This crystal helps quiet the mind chatter so you can respond to questions quickly.

Amethyst is connected to the crown chakra and holds the ability to positively impact the mind by letting new ideas flow. When this stone touches your skin, it emits high-frequency negative ions that have a calming effect on your nervous system to help get you through stressful situations.

Selenite

A good night’s rest can do wonders for your mood the next day, so Selenite’s ability to improve your sleep cycle is one of the main reasons it is on this list.

Selenite is a clear crystal named after the Greek goddess of the moon, ‘Selene,’ so it makes perfect sense that it is useful as a sleep aid.
