I’ve never been really sure about what makes a good cover letter, but this course had super clear and helpful steps that broke down every part of the process! Definitely going to come back and reference it when I’m writing cover letters in the future.

I found your course to be very helpful. Changing careers was hard work within itself. Now I can submit resumes and cover pages.Your advice gets straight to the point.

I have been with the same company for 32+ years, starting when I was 23 years old. I did not need a cover letter then, or maybe we did not even have them back then. Now, most jobs that I'm applying to require one in addition to a resume. So thank you!
