So I applied to to jobs online since the last blog I posted. Both applications gave me the OptIon of writing a cover letter after I posted my resume. Of course I felt like I had to because if I didn't then it looks like I don't know how to. Well I don't know how to. So I googled it like any normal person and went from there. I don't think a good cover letter is meant to be written into a text box from an example by Richard Hammer. Why should I even trust Richie anyway? He probably didn't get the job he applied to!
Anyway, the topic of this post is to express my hatred toward the cover letter. I don't like it, it doesn't serve a purpose, and it's complete bullshit. I might be venting just a smidge but I'm sure you all agree with me on this one. If I was a human resources person I would not want to waste my time reading that. I guess I just have to suck it up and deal with it because they don't seem to be going away anytime soon.
