I believe my skills and experience would make me a valuable asset to your team.
I'd hire Mr. Hermit R. Crabb for his innovative spirit alone! Managed shell exchange program! It could probably become an app.
Making an app will have to be his next project!
I could not love this more. Both because it's just great writing, and also because cover letters are close to my heart.
Reminds me of this: https://wordsmeanthings.medium.com/wayne-enterprises-thanks-you-for-your-application-2bae98625a4d?sk=e83be4f360933fd54a32dc25af995186
Haha, good one! And thank you so much for reading and for your kind comment! I didn't know cover letters were a love of yours. ❤️
I have written hundreds of cover letters over the years, for myself and others. They seem to be a bit of a lost art these days with online applications. Personally, I will never apply for another job, ever. I'm done.
So clever! And I especially love that this is coming out in the season of cancer birthdays! 🦀♋️🎉
Thanks, Elaine! And I didn't realize I'd timed it that way — seems appropriate, as some of the most important people in my life have been cancers.
I love this piece. Very innovative and fun.
Thank you, Brenda!
A “seasoned” crab. I see what you did there. 😅
Haha, I didn’t even do that on purpose — it’s standard wording for these things!
I love hermit crabs and glad you used them as your shell. Also, can I have some of whatever you're smoking?! ;-D
Haha, I wish! Though in the coming weeks, I will be writing about my favorite drug. ;-)
Lots of imagination, here. Loved it.
Thank you!
Rosana, thank you for making us aware of the plight of hermit crabs who can’t tell the difference between a shell and a bottle cap.
I forwarded this to my job search council.

Thanks, Cate! I did not know about job search councils, sounds like a great idea.
You forgot to mention how much hermit crabs love hamster wheels!
I didn't know that! But hermit crabs should live in their natural environment, not as pets. 😊 Maybe Hermit R. Crabb needs to do a campaign about this.
As a current job searcher I just love this.
Ha! Are you going to model your cover letters and resume on this one now? 😊 Best wishes for your job search, Stacey!!
For some reason, Hermit Crab Special Olympics is my favorite line in the whole thing. 🐚🦀🏅

Brilliant (of course!) ❤️🐚
Thank you, Rochelle! I wasn't sure about this one, but I do love getting meta.
Can't wait!
