I have been making the same stupid mistake over the past few weeks. I submitted tons of cover letters with the date still listed as 2014.
I have a strong resume (2 years F.O experience, 1 M.O), go to a semi-target, and have applied to tons of S.A positions, but only got 1 first round with a BB. Maybe that's the explanation for it, maybe not. I also cannot go back and edit any of the cover letters I have already sent in (OCR/Online).
So yea.. don't make the same mistake I did. Update your cover letter
I had a similar situation - submitted cover letters with 2014 on all of them but still got first rounds with all BB's / EBs that recruit at my school. Depends on who reviews the application and how competitive it is I guess.
At some places, people who review resumes don't even see cover letters.
If your resume is legit, your fucking dates don't mean shit. I have never looked at the date on a cover letter.
I can honestly say that I have never read a cover letter. Moreover, I have put 2014 on several things so far this year. Nobody will notice or care if your cover letter has 2014 on it in the month of January.
