I'm trying to write my cover letter for Blackstone, but my university's on-campus recruiting website does not mention who to address it to. Should I just start it as "Dear HR Recruiter:"?
Also, my understanding is that boutiques take the cover letter more seriously. Any suggestions on how to make my cover letter stand out?
Thanks!

I always thought "To Whom It May Concern" was a huge no-no when it came to writing letters.
Also, does the fact that it's not a bulge bracket (ie. small firm, so more likely to look at the cover letter) make a difference?
How about "Dear Mr Schwartzman aka Superjew," ?
Just do "Dear Sir or Madam"
eh a little too late to apply? I applied there too, if you tell me which division I can give you the name of the HR listed on my ocr webpage
which school do you go to btw?
Nope, I applied just in time (per my university's deadlines).
I decided to go with "Dear Sir or Madam." Certainly not preferred over the actual name, but I didn't have the time to find it. Hopefully it doesn't bite me in the ass!
