The internet seems to hate cover letters – with many people discussing how employers who require a cover letter in the application process are toxic or how no one reads the cover letter, there’s a lot of reasoning as to why you may be questioning the importance of the cover letter in your own hiring process. CeCe Wilson, CEDR’s Human Resources Manager, breaks down why you don’t need a cover letter to hire the right candidate, and how to get valuable information during the hiring process in other ways.
