What is the diagnostic value of a cover letter that is probably generated by AI?
Is it a testament to motivation? NO, it's the company forcing the candidate to say nice things about it.
Is it a testament to communication ability? Probably NOT, since it's most likely templated or AI-generated.
Does it make it harder for candidates to apply and might it be a turn-off for them? YES.
Am I missing something as to why this old practice keeps on prevailing?
