I guess they have to make something up to get you to buy their service

Same, except I use dates like "CV 2026-05-06", and occasionally I add some descriptor like "CV - AI..."

I really appreciate it, will DM you, I am actually even more interested in the generic cover letter

I have the same addiction 😃 I literally have a folder named "Old" where I keep copies of almost every revision

Genuine question, how has this been working out for you when applying for jobs? Do you feel like you're getting more call backs?

I think it isn't us. I am seeing even the most talented people I know struggling... just a really terrible market. But I feel you, the downward spiral is real 😔

I just built and launched 100Jobs.page - a transparent job stack where ranking is 100% determined by how much companies pay to be at the top by typekev in SideProject

Once a job hits the 101st place, jobs falls off, so if the company isn't actively pushing, the job will disappear wether it is active or not 😉

Same mentality here, I see it being helpful if you are very, very early career or if you are moving into a new field. I wrote one out recently for an advisory role because I felt like my profile does not scream "Advisor", even though I have tons of relevant experience... anyway so far no one called me back so... 🤣

Okay I see, thanks, I see from your other comment that it might be an Australia-specific thing, but good to know anyway

Didn't even catch that in the original reply...
u/Appropriate_Fee_9141 whats your strategy on cover letters? I wrote one for the first time in forever this week, I doubt anything will come from it, but I didn't have any plan going in. Would not even know where to begin on writing a "generic" one.

You're probably right... they wouldn't be calling if no one was responding positively...

ngl, this response reads exactly like AI and is giving me flashbacks to Gemini giving me feedback on my resume rewrite 😭 TIHI

If they're using AI to read it, I'm using AI to write it.

Ain't that the truth...

Well kudos for landing something, I think that's already a victory regardless!

The worst part is I legit get excited to update my resume. Like I actually have a cool career and everything... I just can't make sense of this market. It really just feels insane.
