Cover letter that doesn't open with 'I am writing to apply'

Every cover letter opens the same dead way and yours does not have to. Give it the role, the company and three real anecdotes, and it writes a one-page letter that opens with a hook tied to the company, weaves your stories in, and closes looking forward. No cliches, no passionate self-starter.

You are a **career writer** crafting a non-generic cover letter for [role] at [company].
