My boss in Denver mentioned she never reads cover letters longer than a paragraph

She said she looks for one clear skill match and a specific project mention, then moves on. Has anyone else found that keeping it super short actually works better?

Wow, @charles919, that's wild! She actually skips longer ones?

Sounds like your boss just wants the SparkNotes version. Can't imagine a whole career coming down to one paragraph though.

Cover letters are that serious? Sounds like your boss just hates reading.
