Why is a good cover letter so important?

Cover letters are often the first part of your application an employer will see, so it’s crucial to ensure that first impression is a good one. a poorly written cover letter can cause a recruiter to disregard your application, just as a good cover letter can make a hiring manager excited to read your resume. a cover letter should give the reader enough information to see why you’re the right candidate for the job without simply re-writing your resume. it needs to demonstrate your enthusiasm for the position, show an employer that you understand their company, and showcase a little of your personality while maintaining a professional tone. it’s hard to sell yourself as the perfect candidate when you don’t know what an employer is looking for, and even harder to write concise, memorable, error-free prose specifically tailored to each application. that’s where our tool comes in. don’t fret about capturing the right mix of personable and professional. use our ai-powered generator to quickly write a cover letter that does all of the above and lets you focus on getting back to your job search., rules for writing a good cover letter, when you’re writing a cover letter, open with a strong introduction. if possible, find the name of the hiring manager and address them directly to show initiative and attention to detail. then, mention the job you’re applying for and your enthusiasm for the role. the following paragraph should highlight particular skills and qualifications relevant to the position, paying special attention to any hard skills and keywords mentioned in the job description. next, show you've done some research on the employer by describing how your skills align with the company's goals or values, and end by thanking the reader for their consideration. your cover letter should be 3 or 4 paragraphs in total. remember, you’re not rewriting your whole resume. the key is to be concise and direct, choosing one or two examples to showcase your points. when you’re finished, remember to proofread for grammar and spelling mistakes, as we all know how poor typos look on professional documents..

Ready to generate your cover letter?

So, are you ready to generate your first cover letter here’s how it works. all you have to do is upload your resume and the job description of the role you’re applying for, and our ai tool will detect your relevant achievements, skills, and experience. it will then craft those skills into a compelling cover letter that is pre-formatted, error-free, and personalized to capture your professional voice. you can also tell the ai software to specifically highlight certain aspects of your resume if there’s a particular qualification you want your cover letter to focus on. as the process is so quick, you can create multiple cover letters for each application if you wish, allowing you to choose whichever you prefer. you can also play around and see if highlighting a certain aspect of your resume creates a more compelling narrative, or combine your favorite parts from multiple letters. it’s so easy to use, it’s really up to you..

AI Cover Letter Writer FAQ

While we’ve tried to make this tool as easy to use as possible, it’s okay to have questions. If you don’t find your answers here, contact our customer support.

What is an AI Cover Letter Writer?

Kickresume’s AI cover letter writer is powered by OpenAI’s GPT-3 natural language processing model. It can generate role-specific cover letters that look and feel a lot like cover letters written by real people.

On the other hand, it has its own limitations. Artificial intelligence doesn’t know you. It cannot tell your story the way you’d be able to.

That's why you should use this cover letter writer with caution. Nevertheless, it can produce a decent-enough cover letter that you can use as your first draft in case you’re struggling with writer’s block. However, remember to edit your AI-generated cover letter and make it more you.

Learn more about the AI cover letter writer or try it out for yourself and generate your cover letter .

If you don’t like that cover letter, simply press the button again. It will generate another set of sentences or rewrite the cover letter from scratch.

What is the best AI Cover Letter Writer?

Kickresume's AI Cover Letter Builder . Here are the reasons why:

• Kickresume AI Cover Letter Builder is based on OpenAI’s GPT-3 neural network, which is the world's most powerful natural language processing model .
• It can generate role-specific cover letters that look and feel a lot like cover letters written by real people.
• Each cover letter that is produced by our AI Cover Letter Builder is unique and custom-built for you.

Is the AI Cover Letter Writer free?

Unfortunately, it is not. On the other hand, there’s a large number of uses (or credits) included with every Kickresume premium subscription plan.

Why is it not free? Kickresume has to pay the OpenAI corporation for every use of its GPT-3 model. Because of that, every use of the AI writer consumes a credit.

In case you run out of these credits, you can either wait for the next billing period or contact our customer support.

If you want to unlock the full power of Kickresume, you can upgrade to a Premium subscription at any time for as little as 5 EUR per month.

Also, Kickresume is free for students .

What is GPT-3?

GPT-3 is OpenAI’s autoregressive language model that uses deep learning to produce human-like text. Put more simply, it’s an AI that can write all kinds of texts, including a programming code, really really well.

GPT-3 is the third generation of this model and it’s very powerful. For instance, even its previous iteration, GPT-2, was considered too dangerous to release to the public. Why? Just imagine what a motivated internet troll or spammer could do with it.

Anyway, the current generation of this language prediction model was in the end released to the public and you can now use it for all kinds of things, including writing your cover letter.

“I was having a hard time getting interviews, and every single one I submitted after using the tool received a response – either a screening or an invitation to interview.”

Thelonious B.

“I used Jobscan Pro throughout my job search to compare the job description to my resume. I really liked that there were in-depth tips based on what kind of ATS some jobs use to parse keywords and save time.”

“Jobscan helped me immensely. I applied to over 250 jobs over about 2 years and got only one job interview and no offer. I started using Jobscan, applied to only 12 jobs in 3 months and received 5 interviews and landed an awesome job. […] This software is incredible and worth every penny.”

“Once I signed up for Jobscan, I ran my resume with a job that I had applied for previously and found the my resume was really lacking! I used Power Edit and suggestions to rework the resume and resent it to a company that I really had interest in! Almost immediately, I got a positive response and landed an interview!”

Below, I’ve reviewed each of the market’s best AI cover letter writers in more depth to help you choose one that’s suited to your needs and budget.

Jasper AI is an efficient AI text generator tool, and while it doesn’t offer a specific cover letter writing feature, it has a range of other features that can create a captivating job application. This includes content improvement, various templates, and personalized brand voices.

Content Improver — If you’ve already written your cover letter, you can use this tool to generate a snappier opening line or simply rearrange the sentence structure for better flow.

AIDA (Attention, Interest, Desire, and Action) — If you want to structure your cover letter like a marketing pitch, use this template to start with an attention-grabbing opener.

Brand Voice — If you’re worried that using AI may make you sound robotic, you can train Jasper AI to use your unique tone of voice, or the tone of voice of the company you’re applying for, so that your cover letter sounds like you.

Jasper AI offers three paid plans, but it doesn’t have a free plan. It only offers a 7-day free trial to test out the Creator or Pro plans. Here’s an overview of your options:

• Creator — 1 user, 1 brand voice, SEO mode, and a Google Chrome browser extension.
• Pro — 6 seats, 3 brand voices, 10 knowledge assets, 3 instant campaigns, and access to Jasper Art.
• Business — Unlimited feature access, performance analytics, enterprise-level security, API access, a dedicated account manager, and custom style guides.

Jasper AI is the cover letter writing tool for you if you want to ensure that your cover letter is well-written and free from mistakes .

Thanks to its high-quality writing skills, you’ll be able to create cover letters that you don’t have to edit as much as you would with tools like Rytr or Word AI .

However, it’s a little pricier than these tools, so you’ll need to make use of the free trial period if you want to generate a cover letter for free.

• Lets you add a brand voice to your text
• Built-in content improver tool
• Automatically saves outputs and prompts
• Add knowledge assets to influence writing style
• No dedicated cover letter generator tool or template
• Only offers a 7-day free trial

Rytr’s dedicated cover letter setting make it an important AI tool to include on this list. It’s particularly helpful for generating cover letter content that’s based on the job description of the role you’re applying for.

Unlike Jasper and Scalenut , Rytr provides pre-designed cover letter templates for its users. You’ll find the cover letter template in Rytr’s simple drop-down menu on its dashboard, along with the option to select your desired tone of voice from the 20+ options.

• Writing from Job Description — Rytr offers a cover letter-specific setting, allowing you to input the job description along with relevant job skills to inform the creation of your cover letter.
• 20+ Tones — From “joyful,” “funny,” and “convincing” to “humble,” “professional,” and “earnest,” there are plenty of tones of voice to choose from to make the letter your own.
• Creativity — You can set the creativity level of the cover letter you’re designing. At the highest level of creativity, the cover letter will be less factual and more attention-grabbing, while a lower creativity setting will generate more factual and professional results.

Rytr is one of the few AI paraphrasers to offer a free forever plan in addition to its two paid subscription tiers.

• Free — 10,000 characters, no plagiarism checks or tone matching, 1 language.
• Unlimited — Unlimited AI content generation, 1 tone match, 50 plagiarism checks/month, 1 language, priority support.

Scalenut is an SEO-first AI writing tool that incorporates keyword research, competitor analysis, and copywriting all into one platform. While SEO may not be immediately applicable to writing a winning cover letter, targeting relevant keywords can still be important.

Even if you’re not competing in search engine rankings, using keywords can help you pass through applicant tracking systems that your future employers may be using to screen applications.

• Keyword Planner — This tool can help you use keywords and phrasing related to the specific skills, experience, and qualifications that a hiring manager may be looking for.
• Cruise Mode — If you don’t know where to start with your cover letter, or you’re in a time crunch, use Cruise Mode to benefit from Scalenut’s automated AI writing suggestions that are informed by keyword research.
• Content Optimizer — If your cover letter is already written but needs to be tweaked, you can run it through Scalenut’s Content Optimizer to improve its relevancy. You’ll also be given suggestions for improvement.

Scalenut offers four pricing plans. While it doesn’t offer a free plan, you do get a 7-day free trial:

• Essential —100,000 words, 5 SEO articles/month, SEO templates, AI images, factual content.
• Growth — Unlimited words, 30 SEO articles per month, audit and optimize 30 articles per month, 60 KW clusters/month, analyze 200 webpages per month on one domain .

• Enterprise — Custom limit on SEO articles, unlimited webpage analysis, advanced AI models, enterprise-level security, tailored onboarding.

While Scalenut lacks a dedicated cover letter template, making it less ideal for drafting your letter from the ground up, it is a useful tool to for optimizing an existing letter  and generating quick cold emails.

As with Jasper AI, you will need to take advantage of Scalenut’s 7-day trial period to generate a free cover letter. That said, it is one of the best AI writing tools for SEO research and keyword optimization in your work.

This expertise, while not immediately linked to cover letter creation, comes in handy when navigating the application processes at large corporations. There, your challenge is twofold: captivating the hiring manager and succeeding in automated screening procedures.

• User-friendly gamified SEO tool
• Cruise Mode is a huge time-saver
• Sales Email Generator for cold emailing potential employers
• Heavy SEO focus
• No free forever plan

Simplified is another popular tool for creating a personalized cover letter. Once you create an account, all that you have to do is write what kind of cover letter you want and hit ‘Generate’.

In my case, I typed in “Write a cover letter for a sales job,” and I received a 400-word cover letter ready in seconds. I was happy with the results; the tone was professional, and all important topics, like your motivation, experience, and qualifications, were covered. It even left blank spaces to ensure it read as a personalized cover letter.

• 100+ Templates — Simplified offers a wide range of templates, which is especially useful when creating a cover letter and you have no idea where to start.
• AI Summarizer — If you need to shorten your cover letter, you can use Simplified to remove unnecessary lines.
• AI Chat — If you’re used to working in a ChatGPT-style Q&A format, Simplified also offers a chatbot that can act as a writing assistant. I found that this tool could provide research or improvements to a cover letter.

In addition to offering one of the best free AI cover letter generator plans, it has three paid plans to choose from:

• Free — Unlimited design products, 1,000+ fonts, 1,000+ templates, over a million photos and icons, 5GB storage.
• Pro — GPT 4 Turbo, access to Simplified AI Chat, 1 AI brand book with knowledge base, AI blog writer with SEO mode, 80+ templates, 40+ languages supported.

• Enterprise — Everything included in Business + additional seats, generations, brand kits, and other advanced features for larger teams.

I liked how easy Simplified was to use, thanks to the fact that you can choose to work in a chatbot style or with one of the numerous templates.

Just like Rytr , Simplified AI also offers a free plan that comes with 2,000 free words, and you can purchase additional credits when needed. These factors make Simplified an accessible option for anyone working on an AI-generated cover letter, even those with little experience with AI tools.

Simplified also offers design, video, and social media management tools, which can be useful additions to your toolkit if you land the job, especially if it’s in content creation.

• Offers 20+ languages
• 100+ AI templates
• One-line prompt can generate a high-quality cover letter
• Free plan includes Grammarly integration and plagiarism checker

While Word AI isn’t a dedicated AI cover letter builder, it is an AI text rewriter, which means you’ll need to have a rough draft of your cover letter. Word AI can then improve it.

Another plus is that it can also help you pass AI detection by tweaking it to sound more human. This way, you can lessen any anxiety you may have about future employers noticing you had a helping hand from AI.

• Avoid AI Detection — Word AI humanizes your content to help you bypass AI detectors or rewriter detectors like Copyscape.
• Rewrite Text — All it takes is one click to jazz up a boring, generic cover letter.
• Create Multiple Versions — If you want to create variations of the same cover letter to diversify your applications for different positions, you can also use Word AI to create multiple versions.

WordAI offers 3 pricing plans. Below, I’ve outlined what each one offers:

• Starter — 50,000 rewrite words and 25,000 pass AI detection words per month
• Power — 3 million rewrite words and 250,000 pass AI detection words per month
• Enterprise — Custom rewrite words and pass AI detection words, white labeled integration, multiple user accounts, a dedicated account manager.

Word AI does not offer a free plan, but you can try it for free for three days. It also offers a 30-day money-back guarantee if you’re not satisfied with the product.

Word AI is great if you have an existing first draft that you’d like to improve on or if you want to create multiple versions .

If you have any lingering doubts about working with AI to help you in your cover letter writing process, Word AI is the tool for you.

One of the biggest pluses of WordAI is to help you pass AI screening. It has compiled a comparison of the test results of text written by them and texts written by other tools like ChatGPT or Writesonic. In each case, WordAI was the only tool to pass all tests.

• Strong rewriting tool
• Cannot be detected by AI-checking tools
• Easily escapes Copyscape’s rewrite-checking tool
• 30-day money-back guarantee
• Doesn’t generate content
• Only a 3-day free trial

Copy.ai offers over 95 languages, the widest range of language options of any cover letter builder I tested. What also gives Copy.ai an edge is its Brand Voice feature.

Brand voice is one of the most important factors to stand out in the job search process. With this tool, you enter a 50 to 500-word prompt in the desired tone. If you want to get it right, go to the company’s website, pick a quote from their employees, and add it to the Brand Voice Analyzer.

• Multiple Languages — Copy.ai supports 95+ languages, so it can be the ideal tool if you’re wanting to apply for jobs abroad.
• Brand Voice — With nine preset tones, including “Professional” for formal applications and “Witty” or “Friendly” for creative roles, Copy.ai helps personalize your cover letter. It can also be trained on the unique tone of voice of your desired company.
• ‘Attach’ — This feature works like a data extractor. Select your file, upload it, and then type “#TheNameOfTheFile” and hit “Improve.” Copy.ai will immediately extract all relevant data and create a summary of the report.

CopyAI offers three pricing plans, including a free option. Here’s a breakdown of each one:

• Free — 1 seat, 2,000 words in chat, 200 bonus credits.
• Pro — 5 seats, unlimited words in chat, 500 workflow credits per month.
• Team — 20 seats, unlimited words in chat, 3,000 workflow credits per month.

Copy.ai excels at creating the perfect cover letter tailored to your desired job posting. I found that it is great for anyone wanting advanced brand voice analysis to help customize your cover letter for the role you’re applying for .

Its extensive language support can refine your writing process and could open doors for international job applications.

• Brand voice analyzer tool included
• User-friendly design with customizable tones
• Offers pre-written prompts
• Brand voice feature not available on free plan
• Platform is sales and marketing-focused

I’ve outlined the key differences between each of my top picks so that you can quickly identify the best AI writing software for your needs:

How We Review And Test AI Tools

We base our recommendations on first-hand testing. All the products we feature, have been tested based on the following criteria:

• Accuracy : The accuracy of every AI tool varies and is largely dependent on the AI model used and the quality of the input. We test each tool to gauge its accuracy across the tasks and use cases it supports.
• Performance : We also test how long it takes the AI tool to deliver results and weigh this time against the quality of the output. Quick results mean nothing if the output isn’t accurate, relevant, or what you expected.
• Ethical Considerations : We explore any issues with bias, transparency, and privacy to ensure we recommend only the best artificial intelligence solutions that take these ethical concerns seriously.
• User Experience : We test every AI tool on all the supported platforms to gauge its user-friendliness and whether it works as advertised. We also explore any online documentation available.
• Value for Money : We weigh the features, performance, and accuracy of the market’s best AI tools against their cost to determine their value for money. We also factor in the cost to scale with the platform.
• Features : We test every feature on offer with the service over a two-week period. This includes testing their functionality (whether it’s art generation, or voiceovers, for example) across all the platforms the tool supports.
• Security : From data privacy to ensuring the tools haven’t had a data breach, we take security seriously, checking their regulatory compliance and how vulnerable the AI models are to exploitation.

A cover letter is your first chance to make a good first impression. Therefore, you should pay extra attention to ensure there is no complacency while writing one. Here are a few tips to help you write the best cover letters:

• Be specific —  Avoid submitting a generic cover letter for every job. Your cover letter should outline how well your abilities align with the specific position and the company you are applying to. Make sure to draw links between your skills and what’s asked for in the job description.
• Address the Hiring Manager — Make an effort to find out the hiring manager’s name and address them personally. Most applicants address the letter with sentences like “To whom it may concern” or “To the hiring manager of XYZ”, which tends to be less effective.
• Expand On Your Resume ” —  Cover letters can be viewed as an extension of your resume. It is an opportunity for you to expand upon the skills mentioned in your resume and offer relevant examples of your skills in action to show how you can contribute to the company’s cause. Make sure not to simply repeat lines from your resume.
• Keep It Concise —  Many recruiters don’t have time to read entire cover letters. Statistics show they only skim cover letters for seven seconds . It’s important to write an attention-grabbing opening paragraph and to keep it short and snappy.

If you’re wanting to generate cover letter content based on your resume using AI , first I’ll say that all tools recommended for cover letter writing will allow you to input information about your career history in the form of a text prompt.

When asking it to create the cover letter content, you will give it plenty of information to base the output on, such as the exact role your applying for, the level of seniority, important information from the job description, and, of course, information form you resume that you want to ensure it includes.

Some AI tools will go a step further and will even let you simply upload your resume as a document to their platforms. They will then use this to inform the copy they create for your cover letter. Some example of AI tools that do this are Grammarly and Jobscan.

Choosing the best cover letter builder to help you with your job application process doesn’t need to be difficult. Here are some of the factors you should consider when choosing an AI tool to write your cover letter.

The ideal cover letter builder provides dedicated cover letter templates so that you can input the job description and skills to create a relevant output in less time than it may take without a specific template.

An AI cover letter writer is of no use if the quality of the final output isn’t great. That’s why I’ve included platforms with a good reputation known for producing quality content.

Recruiters have become more careful of artificial intelligence . This is why I’ve included platforms that offer plagiarism checkers to ensure that your cover letter passes through AI detectors.

In fact, WordAI is a dedicated plagiarism checker tool that will help you craft unique cover letters for every job.

Even if you’re not publishing your cover letter online, it’s still important to consider targeting relevant keywords as you write. Scalenut is an SEO-focused writing tool that can help ensure your cover letter hits all the relevant keywords to pass through applicant tracking systems.

You don’t need to be tech-savvy to use AI text generators. All of our recommended platforms are easy to use. You simply select a template, type in your job description and skills, and generate a cover letter within minutes.

I’ve included some tools that offer free plans and suit one-off writing projects since you shouldn’t need to sign up for an ongoing subscription.

In case you do find that you’d like to continue working with the AI tool once you secure your job, it’s best to look at what else the AI tool offers and whether the features meets your particular needs.

How to Write the Best Cover Letter With AI

In this section, I'll demonstrate how to use Rytr's dedicated cover letter builder to create a personalized cover letter for your job search.

Go to 'Write'

To begin drafting your cover letter, go to the copy editor within Rytr’s interface titled ‘Write’. There, you’ll have the option to set the parameters for your cover letter.

Select 'Cover Letter'

You can choose the relevant use case in the drop-down menu. There are multiple options, but for this demonstration, I selected ‘Cover Letter’. If you’re writing a cold email, you can also choose that option.

Choose Your Tone

To further tailor your cover letter to your job application, you can select your desired tone of voice from the 20+ options. Suitable options for a cover letter include ‘Formal’, ‘Passionate’, or ‘Convincing’, you can experiment with each tone to see which one suits you best.

Fill in Job-Specific Details

A big plus of Rytr is that it offers the space to include job-specific information, ensuring you receive a cover letter tailored to your industry. You can enter the job title and mention any relevant skills and qualities that should be included.

Set Creativity Level

Rytr also offers a ‘Creativity’ scale, which means the level of factual information vs creative language it will involve in the results. This decision should be based on the formality of your industry or job level, as well as your personal preference.

Generate Output

Once you have programmed the cover letter builder, you can select how many variants you’d like to receive, then hit ‘Ryte for me’ to generate the cover letter. Once it has appeared in the left-hand side of the screen, you can fill in any blank spaces with your personal information and also apply any manual edits.

Do employers check for AI in cover letters?

Employers do have the option to run your cover letter through an AI detector, but it’s not a given. AI detectors are also not 100% accurate, but it’s still good practice to edit and add personal information to the letter to make the letter your own to help bypass AI detection.

Do AI cover letter generators evade detection?

If you submit a fully AI-written cover letter, you are at risk of detection. While many AI detectors are not completely foolproof, you should still take measures to personalize your letter before submitting it.

What’s the best free AI cover letter generator?

There are several AI writers you can use to design a cover letter for free. Our top pick is Copy.ai due to its ease of use. Select the cover letter template, enter the job description and your skills, and hit “generate content.” You’ll have several versions of the cover letter ready within seconds. Select the one you like and edit it before submitting it to your potential recruiter.

Can I use AI to write my entire resume?

With the evolution of several AI models, it is now possible to write your CV using AI. These systems can generate different CV templates, and you’ll only need to fill in personal details such as name, qualification, contact number, and so on. You can also provide the model with your career history and qualifications and the job you are applying for. You can then generate a detailed CV within minutes.

How can I make my cover letter stand out?

You can make your cover letter stand out by addressing the hiring manager by name, keeping things concise and relevant to the job description, matching your own experience to the job role, and proofreading for spelling and grammar mistakes before submitting.

More From Forbes

Your cover letter still matters-here’s how to use ai to write it.

• Share to Facebook
• Share to Twitter
• Share to Linkedin

Working with AI to craft a cover letter.

In 2024, do cover letters still matter? Indeed.com says that a cover letter is a one-page application document that can help clarify your qualifications - and some companies value cover letters more than others. The novoresume.com career blog says that, in 2024, you should include a cover letter in your job application 98% of the time . In contrast, an informal poll conducted by Forbes offers that 70% of respondents - a mix of recruiters, hiring managers and candidates - say that cover letters are unnecessary. And CNBC reports that 58% of workers say that cover letters aren’t a requirement - before encouraging you to write one anyway. Like most issues with multiple perspectives, the need for a cover letter boils down to one short answer: it depends . ATS (applicant tracking system) software scans for keywords , and so do recruiters and HR pros. If you are using a spray and pray approach, littering the internet with your keyword-dense CV, maybe a cover letter doesn’t matter. But, in some situations, leaving out a cover letter means missing an opportunity. For job seekers, ignoring your cover letter as a quaint idea from yesteryear is a mistake - especially when certain career circumstances exist. And using AI to write your story might just be the easiest way to tell it.

Consider Jeni’s recent interview for a director position, where she was invited by a friend (not in HR) for an informal interview, over coffee. The role is a position in marketing, where her written skills (crafting press releases, dealing with the media, evaluating brand campaigns) are part of the job description. “Send me your résumé, and a cover letter,” her friend says. Of course, Jeni’s résumé is important. So is her LinkedIn profile . But also, her ability to connect and communicate persuasively is displayed in her cover letter. For her position, communicating clearly in writing is a mission-critical skill. Plus, she has a connection to the company - something that can help “break the ice” for the hiring manager, not just HR .

Here are five reasons to include a cover letter:

• It’s requested.
• You feel it can increase your chances of getting an interview.
• You are interviewing for a position where your writing skills and relationship-building skills will be evaluated.
• You are interviewing for a senior position. Summaries of your skillset are part of the relationship-building that is central to your career success.
• You are transitioning to a new industry , or you have little/no experience in the industry. A cover letter can help you to bridge a gap or clarify your interests.

Best High-Yield Savings Accounts Of September 2023

Best 5% interest savings accounts of september 2023, is using ai on your cover letter....cheating.

If I am trying to pound a nail, should I use my fist ...or a hammer? Today, AI is a tool that can help make things easier. When it comes to writing your cover letter, why not at least consider some guidance from an AI prompt?

Here are some simple guidelines for your favorite bot, like ChatGPT , Bard with Gemini , Kickresume or Grammarly . After you’ve created a cover letter, feed it into the slot where the magic happens and ask some clever AI questions. Play around with what you ask the AI , and see what fits best for you. It’s kinda lazy to just say, “Given this job description and my background in this industry, write my cover letter.” But of course, the AI will do what you ask - just feed it the relevant data for review and comparison. Remember, it will never be your best work until someone else has read it - and in this case, “someone else” means you:

• Summarize the skills required in this job description into two categories: hard skills and soft skills. (here’s a good place to start - so you can see where you line up in terms of fit and skills)
• Summarize the job skills with the appropriate experience on my résumé, citing company names and roles in my job history.
• Write an introductory sentence expressing my interest in the position. (do you really need AI for that one, or did I just do it for you?) Or try this: Write five different ways to express enthusiasm and interest in the company and the position.
• Summarize the hard and soft skills on my résumé and write a single, short paragraph on how my background and qualifications are a perfect fit for the job. (now the first paragraph is done)
• Rewrite this cover letter to align my background with the job skills listed in the description. (You may need to offer those details and descriptions to the chatbot).
• Write five different ways to request an interview, at the recruiter’s convenience.
• Please write this cover letter in a way that is more compelling for a recruiter or hiring manager, based on my skills and background, in less than 200 words.

Ideally, you want to prompt the bot to help you to achieve some best practices around your story: Does this cover letter showcase my talents and skills, fit for the position, sincere desire for the role, and a clear request for next steps, in less than 200 words? What changes could make this cover letter: more precise? More concise? More compelling? Better aligned for the position? Choose the words that will help you most, and you’re on the right track.

The Advantages of a Cover Letter

There are three distinct advantages to having a well-written cover letter.

• Building a Relationship with Your Employer: if you think your résumé speaks for itself, think again. The cover letter is like a handshake - it starts the conversation, and establishes rapport. Shorthand is cool via text, IYKYK, but some aspects of personal connection (like a cover letter) don’t need to be abbreviated - or ignored. Only you can decide if the role really merits a cover letter. If you decide to include one, on your own, make sure it’s a good reflection on your personal brand, your work ethic, and the skills you bring to the table.
• Leveraging Existing Relationships: Rezi.ai says that mutual connections can make hiring managers more lenient in considering you for the position. The cover letter is a perfect place to bring up those associations. In some cases, your cover letter can help introduce you as an insider - or at the very least, someone who is a “known quantity” by someone with the organization. Your résumé is what you say about yourself - but what others say often carries significant weight, in the hiring process.
• Finding an Advantage when Changing Careers, or When You Don’t Have a Ton of Experience: not every candidate is going to be a perfect fit for every role. Don’t let that discourage you from going for what you want. According to Rezi.ai, there are advantages to having little to no experience in the field. One of those advantages is that it’s easier for the company to shape you as one of their own, since you won’t have many work habits that will need to change. Telling a story of transferrable skills - and powerful interest - can begin with a cover letter. Especially if your fit might be hard to glean, based on your résumé.

The higher you go in an organization, the more important your writing skills may become. A cover letter, summarizing a significant list of accomplishments and work history, is no easy task. But at executive levels, where fit and relationships are crucial, don’t leave home without a concise cover letter. It’s like a written elevator pitch - a short, persuasive introduction to you and your work, supported by your résumé and demonstrated in the interview. In my book, Leadership Language , I talk about how your elevator pitch is simply a way to start the conversation. That’s what a well-written cover letter can do for your career: start a conversation.

It’s been said that the way you do one thing is the way you do everything. So, if career success matters to you, make sure that your cover letter reflects your attention to detail, your interest in the position, and your reasons why you are a good fit. That way, a cover letter isn’t yesterday’s news. It’s another business tool that gives you every possible opportunity to succeed.

Why family empires dominate business in India

Their grip on the economy may be starting to weaken—slowly.

F or many years the hottest event in Indian capitalism was the annual general meeting of Reliance Industries. Thousands of attendees, from rickshaw drivers to day labourers, would pile into the Cooperage Football Stadium in Mumbai for a glimpse of Dhirubhai Ambani, the company’s charismatic founder.

Reliance’s annual meeting last month was a decidedly duller affair. Gone were the thronging crowds; the event was held online. Reading from scripted remarks was Mukesh Ambani (pictured), who now leads the conglomerate after a bitter feud with his brother following their father’s death in 2002. At 67, Mr Ambani is rumoured to have suffered a serious illness in the past three years (which the company denies). Those who do business with Reliance say that after him, the most important person there is Manoj Modi, a long-time employee who keeps a low profile (and is no relation of the prime minister’s). When Mr Ambani eventually steps away, many expect that control of India’s most valuable company will shift to a hired hand such as Mr Modi, with Mr Ambani’s children accorded ceremonial roles. In India, such transitions are slowly becoming more common.

Big family companies play a strikingly large role in Indian commerce. Its ten most valuable family-business groups are worth nearly $900bn, according to Hurun India, a research firm (see table). The top 100 are worth $1.4trn. First-generation groups account for just a fifth of that. According to a study co-authored by Kavil Ramachandran of the Indian School of Business, nine-tenths of India’s listed firms are family-controlled, far higher than in the West. Few corporate giants in America are controlled by families; there is no Gates at Microsoft, nor a Jobs at Apple. Rupert Murdoch, a media mogul, is under pressure from an activist investor to give up his family’s control of News Corp.

In India the outsize role of families changes the character of commerce. Succession feuds such as the one between Mr Ambani and his brother are common, and often lead to conglomerates being split into multiple businesses. Corporate empires intermingle through marriages. Foreign companies such as Disney, a media giant, have realised that doing business in the country is easier with the help of a well-connected family.

Dominance of India’s economy by a few families is an outcome its post-independence government overtly sought to avoid. Various laws passed between 1947 and 1969 sought to curtail the growth of large companies. Many firms were nationalised and various industries, such as mining and telecoms, were reserved for the state.

In practice, the vast regulatory burden of doing business in the country continued to benefit large family enterprises with strong connections—an advantage that persists today. In a country with weak institutions, these firms are better placed to attract capital, negotiate with workers and sway government policy in their favour. A focus on leaving a legacy may also encourage family-run businesses to invest more in their long-term success. It helps that, unlike many rich countries, India has not imposed an inheritance tax since 1985, making it easier to maintain family control across generations.

There are signs, however, that change is underway, and not just at Reliance. There are very few Tatas left at Tata, another conglomerate. The last member of the family to run it, Ratan Tata, stepped down in 2012 (albeit with a brief cameo in 2016). When Anand Mahindra retired in 2020 as head of the Mahindra Group, yet another Indian conglomerate, he handed the reins to an employee. So did Harsh Mariwala when in 2014 he stepped down as the boss of Marico, a family firm he had grown into a consumer-products giant.

For private-equity firms considering India, such transitions provide an opening. Nikhil Shah of Alvarez & Marsal, a consultancy, notes that helping them turn around former family companies is a growing business for his firm. Family-owned giants including Cipla, a pharmaceutical company owned by the Hamied family since 1935, and Haldiram’s, a snack-food business controlled by the Agarwal family since 1937, are said to be up for sale.

In time, the growing dynamism of India’s economy may further loosen the grip of corporate dynasties. New-business registrations have picked up as the process has become simpler. Despite a recent slump in venture-capital investment, India has a vibrant tech scene full of entrepreneurs eager to disrupt stodgy incumbents.

But change will be slow. Gautam Adani, India’s second-richest man and patriarch of the Adani Group, has been explicit about his desire to create a dynasty. His children are heavily engaged in the business, and people who interact with the group say they routinely encounter family members. JSW , India’s biggest steel company, is now preparing for its second round of succession. Bajaj, one more Indian conglomerate, has been through two rounds of succession already and seems likely to go on to a third. India’s family empires, it seems, will not go anywhere fast. ■
