Craziest Cover Letter I have EVER received at my job.

[nuttertasha]

Can you tell us which kind of job that person was looking for? If it's something creative, like journalism, I'd say well done! The person proves that they know how to write engaging pieces. I've read a few cover letters lately because we were looking for a new part-timer, and none was as interesting as that one.

Surprisingly, the person is a Heavy Equipment Operator and contractor looking for work in the local mines.

If I was looking through applicants, I would deffinitly ask them to come for an interview. Very clever resume.

Well... at least they stuck out from the crowd?

Well then, his/er "horrible" typing skills shouldn't be a problem.  I'd interview him/her!

I would have never guessed that...I would have thought maybe they were going for a field job because of the typing, but not in the mining industry. Goes to show you can't judge a book by it's cover

What a great letter! As an employer I would also interview them!

[ZennaBug]

lol, I like it!!!  I'd interview him 

[melodys_angel]

Thats the definition of 'thinking outside the box'

Wow!  Best of luck to them

Wow...  it's not surprising that employers are having trouble finding employees who can properly communicate in written fashion!    Those kinds of cover letters and resumes don't even get looked at in my office - we dump them all into a folder called "NO".  Regardless of whether the employee is expected to write techical manuals or operate mining equipment, there NEEDS to be the ability to write a professional cover letter!

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.
 
I hope for that guy, employers in his industry can overlook the lack of professional writing skills and him a chance to show what he can really do!
 
Thumbs Up from me!

There's a lot to be said for creativity and creative individuals

[Bunny-san]

Well it definitely stands out and catches your attention.
