-: So do I recommend having a cover letter?
Candidly, I skim them, but I think that is standard,
it is protocol, you should absolutely do it because if a
resume did not come with a cover letter I might discount it.
But I admittedly I do skim them 'cause that's a lot
verbage in a cover letter and the resumes,
that's another huge piece of advice I like to give,
bullet points and keep it simple.
The more detail you put in the more difficult it is
to interpret what is being put into there.
So simplicity is always your best friend on a resume.
