I'm just one data point, but every company I've worked for told they me they hired me because of my cover letter. I have 15 years of work experience.

- vidarh 4y agoConversely, after 27 years as a hiring manager, the vast majority of people I've hired didn't even send one. I think a good cover letter certainly can make a difference, if it helps highlight why you're a good fit for this specific role if it's not obvious from your CV, but I rarely send any myself, and not for any of the jobs I've actually gotten over the years.
