Cover Letter for VC
Hi everyone,
I need to submit my cover letter for a position at a VC. I wrote it with complete honesty but I'm not sure if it sounds convincing and professional enough. I have attached my cover letter here. I would appreciate any feedback or suggestions for improvement, as I am not very experienced in writing cover letters.
Thank you!
