Hi WSO community,
I am working on an IB experienced hire application, and the portal says "You are not required to submit a cover letter.". Is this a trap?? Should I spend a few hours writing something?

Just spend 10-15 minutes and write one. It's good to have one on hand since you can use it as a template for other companies.
Thank you
