This.... seems like exactly the opposite of what people should be doing? As a hiring manager, a cover letter is an extremely important part of helping the company understand the context of why your resume is worth considering. If you have a passion for the company's mission, and great alignment with the job description, finding the right way to make that clear in the cover letter is what will help land you the job. If you're generating cover letters with "minimal details," then you're pretty much guaranteeing your resume won't be looked at.

Hi Product Hunt! When applying for jobs, I got tired of making cover letters for each company. So I thought it'd be useful to make a custom cover letter generator — just input your name, the company you want to work for, some skills and a project and we'll generate a custom cover letter for you! I'd love some feedback on it. Thanks!

I think this more highlights why cover letters are an outdated and irrelevant part of the hiring process. Applicants don't want to waste time writing custom cover letters for every job they apply to, so they write generic ones. Hiring managers know that most cover letters are generic, so they generally don't read them. I would argue that writing one to two creative sentences about why you want to work for the company is more valuable than any generic cover letter.

I view this as probably not practically useful for most, but a proof of concept for why cover letters are dumb most of the time. At least, the traditional format crammed into the modern web hiring pipeline

Dope 🚬🚬 “How to make a cover letter” Is a top 5 google search term.

Haha nice gallery @v2s2c 👀 Where did you come across this?

Decent idea for engineers with limited written communication skills, but the grammatical errors in the example are egregious. Honestly, you may as well be saying, "I do code gooder."

Amazing!!, A few suggestions if you will, 1. you can have a radio button to choose what are you applying for, it could be Full-time job or Internship. 2. the text generated, is quite big, if you bold, underline or italic the user's input text, it will be easier for users to scan the cover letter generated. 3. a button on the corner of the text view box to copy text.

Nice job, I built the same sort of thing, but its like 10x more complex, you can check out my product to get an idea, I assume you to feel the same passion as I to automate the job application process and make it a lot simpler for all job seekers!

I recently needed to apply for a very prestigious job and had no idea how to write a resume that would be accepted right away. Then I shifted my attention to these guys - https://resume-genius.com/cover-... .They assisted me in writing a very good resume for a low price, and the boss was very pleased with it, saying he had never seen such a beautiful resume before. As a consequence, for the third month in a row, I've been working. Company and have nothing to regret. Employees in this field are very skillful in performing their tasks, they approach each client especially and adapt to his professional work experience.

As a person who has difficulty in writing the most simple sentence; I really don't care about people's opinion on Al that appears to distrupt the world they work in. Hmmm, Looking at what I wrote...Really, one doesn't have anything to do with the other... and that sentence doesn't really help the creator or build the product hunt community, Maybe I should just blog this somewhere else....🙄
