    Nice advice. I should use less AI to make my cover letters, lol.

    • @matthewjgeddes
      @matthewjgeddes หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks! I totally get that. Most students I meet use AI extensively for their cover letters, and it can definitely be a great tool to get started. The key is to use it as a starting point and then tailor the content, especially that first paragraph. That’s your chance to make a strong, personalized impression-it can really set the tone for the rest of the letter!
