It’s 2021 and folks are STILL asking for cover letters. I’m already begging, aint I? Lol 🗣DEFUND COVER LETTERS
@shanellegenai I tweet this every few months because why do we need them?
@shanellegenai I REFUSE to do it. If they don’t call me, it wasn’t meant to be 😭
@shanellegenai @JonMunitz I've never written a cover letter Software Engineer making 6 figs
@shanellegenai I call the candidate 80% based on cover letter and 20% on resume. I'm sorry its such a chore but on the other end you hate to get bulk mailed resumes.
@shanellegenai @kidnoble If you knew how many people use the same resume whether they’re applying at w*lmart or the pentagon, you’d ask for cover letters too. Is Johnny really interested in THIS job or is he send out applications indiscriminately? Cover letter.
@shanellegenai Before that, can we stop asking for recommendation letters.. honestly I'm exhausted and embarrassed asking for reco letters so many times.. and it's such a waste of time for the letter writers 🙄
@shanellegenai @admackjr 😂 lol jobs are apply and get one free these days.. just show up
@shanellegenai Hahahah what do they want in a cover letter! I never understood it….isn’t the interview the time to get to know people and their personalities/first impression???
