Most Recruiters Don't Care About Your Cover Letter
- dsr_ 11y agoI, on the other hand, do care. Our ads always specify something specific and relevant to put in your cover letter. (It's usually "in your cover letter, tell us about a problem that you are especially proud of solving".) We find out three things: - Can you follow directions in an important context? - Do you write English fluently? - Can you write a problem report in a way that's interesting? People who can do that well almost always get phone interviews.
- togeekornot 11y agoI suppose it's a different matter when you have asked for something specific in the cover letter, as in your case. You're absolutely right about the things you can find out by doing that, too.
