Consider that job seekers today sometimes have to apply to hundreds of positions before being hired. For most of those applications, they won’t hear anything back. Given that dynamic, would you spend time polishing a cover letter for each application?
- badwolf 3y agoMy recent job hunt was over 1700 applications. Nobody is spending 10 minutes writing a cover letter. Companies that are getting hundreds to thousands of applications are not reading every cover letter.
- kergonath 3y agoIn my field, certainly. We expect them to prepare a presentation for the interview as well. Our pond is not large enough, there are not hundreds of positions to apply to.
