Do you think that the first line should still be written like that, because I’ve been told that it’s not up to date anymore and that you should not write sentences like that anymore?

You might be better off making your videos in German As a native English speaker, some of your word choice sounds very clunky and confusing Rather serving as cliff hangers, your statements are bland and often don’t make sense Please check for your grammar and syntax before publishing your work Comment from : Nat Fam

I think cover letters are very subjective I remember writing a cover letter with a similar structure and an ex consultant just told me it was too common and proceeded to show me some other format Ironically, another ex consultant once told that is a wrong format Comment from : its me

Comment from : andrea armini

Such an amazing video I highly your content!! Comment from : BrambleHugger

It may be due to your career step at this point in time, but I think this is not a strong cover letter at all - even though it worked for youbrI always prefer a cover letter in which the applicant clearly states:br- what are his/hers specific experiences, capabilities and what kind of knowledge he/her brings,br- and how these features are helping my company to succeed (in which way or in what area)br- why he/her wants to join us, our industry, our market niche or our particular companybr- why should we choose you (maybe in the penultimate sentence), in short form or catch phrasebr- maybe to add the expected compensation and when could the applicant actually start to work, or what is their current notice periodbrbrA clear motivation + the expected benefits for my company (maybe in combination with the track record in the CV) are important to me - and one sentence about their personality (hobbies etc) is fine toobr"This is a person, that I want to meet" should be the result, even if they do not hiring you laterbrbrWhat do you think?
