tell me about cover letters. what do i put on this thing? i've never put serious effort into writing one before.
This is a great question. I am looking forward to the responses. Me personally, I would have hired somebody by this point.
I haven't done one in a bazillion years. At this point, if I am ever out looking for a job, I will hire somebody to do my resume and write my cover letters (or at least guide me in writing them). The two major promotions I have gotten in the past 10 years were basically taps on the shoulder, so I didn't have to do this crap. I have tried to keep my resume up to date, but it probably pretty
compared to a professional.
I know others wouldn't agree with me on paying somebody, but I have just seen how it has helped others over the past decade or so.
