A discussion I had today made me realize I have not said a heck of a lot about cover letters in recent weeks (months?) so I will rectify that right now!
Cover letters, to me as a recruiter, are a nuisance. They were great in the golden days of recruiting (when my hair was thicker and had a bit less grey!) before email, Linked In, text messaging, etc. Snail mail still lends itself to cover letters to clarify the position one is applying for. Beyond that, they are pointless. Other than providing a full cover letter when asked for it, simply provide one only if asked for it. Under no circumstances should a cover letter be confused with a resume!
