Write a Cover Letter
Write a half-page cover letter that opens with your best evidence, maps 2-3 job requirements to real wins, and never fabricates.
Write my cover letter. The job posting: """ [PASTE THE FULL JD] """ My resume: """ [PASTE RESUME] """ Anything the resume doesn't show: [CAREER CHANGE REASON / REFERRAL NAME / CONNECTION TO THE COMPANY OR ITS PRODUCT / GAP EXPLANATION, or "nothing"] One concrete thing about THIS company that genuinely interests me: [PRODUCT DETAIL / RECENT NEWS / MISSION SPECIFIC: "great culture" doesn't count] Rules for the letter: - **Length:** 250-320 words, 3-4 paragraphs. Hiring managers prefer half a page; every word past that is risk. - **Opening (highest-stakes paragraph):** lead with a referral if I named one; otherwise lead with my single most relevant, verifiable achievement matched to this role's core need. Banned: "I am writing to apply for...", "I was excited to see...", anything about my passion before my proof. - **Middle:** pick the 2-3 JD requirements that matter most and map each to a specific accomplishment from my resume, mirroring the JD's exact terminology where I have the real experience. Add the narrative the resume can't hold (why the career move makes sense, what connects the dots), never restate bullet points. - **Company paragraph:** 2-3 sentences using my stated specific interest, proof I chose them, not sprayed 50 applications. - **Close:** confident, plain, one soft call to action. No begging, no "I know I'd be perfect". - **Hard rule:** every claim traces to my resume or my stated extras. Where a requirement has no evidence in my material, do NOT paper over it (flag it below the letter as [GAP: requirement), options: address in interview / add to resume if true]. Deliver: the letter, then the gap list, then a 2-line version of my opening paragraph rewritten as a LinkedIn connection note to the hiring manager.
How to use
Surveys of hiring managers keep finding the same things: most still read cover letters, they prefer half a page, and the opening paragraph decides the skim, which is why this prompt spends its rules there. The one-specific-interest input is your differentiator; a real product detail beats any eloquence. Regenerate per application: the requirement mapping changes with every JD.
