Generate cover letters based on your resume and the job you're applying for.

Not even a sample of what can be expected? Uhm.

Anyway, the Generate Cover Letter button has "cursor: not-allowed;" to imply it is not enabled if you don't fill the form first, but it actually works and proceeds to payment without checking the form fields.

That's been corrected. Saw this come across the log about 13 minutes ago.

Four initial thoughts:

1 - How does this differ from feeding ChatGPT your CV content, and the copy from the job posting?

2 - To that point, $2 is a high bar given there are no samples, examples, success stories, etc.

3 - I'm not being a nit-picky critic. I'm legitimately trying to help.

4 - Being able to generate a targeted (to the posting) CV *and* a cover letter...now that might worth rolling the dice and wagering a couple of bucks.

Thank you for this feedback.

Yesterday I did have a marketing copy where we provided a sample, but people were copying it then leaving the site :p

I like item #4 a lot!

Dealing with CVs without having a privacy policy will be an issue.

I would advice adding a privacy policy and terms pages explaining how do you use the data, are you keeping a copy? sharing it with 3rd party? what do you use to parse these CVs?
