Craziest Cover Letter I have EVER received at my job.

As a composition teacher, I'm terrified.

Please, folks: INVEST in writing skills!

While this seems cute on some levels, it does suggest someone with limited communication skills or someone who has been "out of the loop" for a while.

I would contact her/him and suggest some application material help sites or books to help them better their chances.

They appear to have a good heart; their approach just needs some tiding-up.

Although, they do have a better grasp of content than some other folks!

I'd say it's probably meant as a tongue-in-cheek piece. With that in mind, I like it!

As an employer I'd be bored to tears reading dozens of stuffy cover letters that are probably half fabrication and half exaggeration. If it gets him an interview that's all that really matters.

It is a shame that most places would not give this person a second look. They may not know or care what a professional cover letter should look or sound like. At least you can be sure he wrote it himself, he didn't pay a service to write it for him. What I like best it that there's absolutely no fake "BS" in there, like alot of cover letters sound. 

See, thing is, I've written dozens upon dozens of cover letters over the years at my job for people, and employers *know* when I've written it for a client. I warn the clients employers know and it can look bad, but sadly, so many are just SO BLOODY LAZY they expect me to do all their damn work. Which is why I love stuff like this, and I don't even mind "professional" style ones with errors, cause at least I know the person wrote it themselves! Employers notice it too, and I've seen a lot of cover letters "I've" done get passed over. Not cause I didn't do my best FOR the client, but because the employer knows it was form me, NOT them.

Lol, it has a quirky flow.  Would definitely put a smile on my face if I came across it.

I am currently looking for employment and recently saw the perfect job! In the ad they said you must have a fantastic sense of humour. I literally redid my CV so that the first page had silly little anecdotes and info about me plastered all over. I got the interview based purely on that! I was so happy!

So yes, even though his writing skills are not top notch, I'd still interview him for his creativity!

[PonyMonsters]

That's hilarious!!!

[SurfStar]

I think that the letter is awesome. I also think that what type of cover letter a person writes probably depends on the job they are seeking. I know in my field that, even though most psychologists have a good sense of humor, if I submitted that I would never get a second look.

Hopefully though, the guy does well because that will most certainly get him a second look!

Nice!

Definitely shows that he has a sense of humor which is a great thing for placement. Albeit a little unprofessional but you gotta love his creativity.

That is a brilliant letter, I'm going to try something like that:)

I'd give them an interview just for "Top of the morning to you"
