Ugh! Cover letters… I get questions all the time about cover letters. Questions like “do I even need a cover letter?”, “what am I supposed to say in my cover letter?”, or “how do I write a cover letter that helps me stand out?”

You might be surprised to learn that cover letters are still used by many hiring officials to make decisions like who they should bring in for an interview or what should they offer the potential employee as a compensation package.
