HOW TO BRIEF IT
"Here is the job advert and my CV. Write a cover letter of under three hundred words. Address the three main requirements. Explain why this organisation specifically."
WHAT YOU MUST SUPPLY
Why this organisation. The model cannot know, and will produce flattery.
Something specific: their work, their reputation, a project, a connection.
WHAT MAKES THEM FAIL
Repeating the CV Generic enthusiasm Nothing specific about the organisation Length
WHAT TO EDIT
All of it, toward how you actually write.
A recruiter reading many applications recognises generated letters.
THE MOST IMPORTANT PARAGRAPH
Why you want this role specifically. That is what distinguishes you, and it must be genuine.
