The Cover Letter is dead, replace it with this.

I can't remember the last time I saw a Cover Letter and I get hundreds of CVs through every day. 

If someone asks me if one would be beneficial for their application, I’d tell them not to waste their time.

There might be a handful of companies out there who would still request one but we are witnessing a huge paradigm shift in the world of Recruitment.

We live in a fast-paced, transactional world. People are busy and time-poor.

If the average hiring manager/recruiter spends 6-8 seconds looking at a CV - do you think they'd make time to read a cover letter?

This is where your LinkedIn profile comes into play.
