Hi, I'm Alvaro

Also known as Mr. Cover Letter, I’ve been at both sides of the table, both as a jobseeker and a hiring manager.

 

I know what it feels like to be frustrated, slogging my way through job boards and submitting application after application in desperation. After making some drastic and profound changes to the way I was doing things, I found myself on the other side of the hiring process, as a hiring manager myself. 

 

 

It’s how I now know exactly what hiring managers are looking for when they screen for potential candidates. I’ve seen my old mistakes played out time and time again by jobseekers.  What started as a fun nickname amongst friends soon stuck and Mr. Cover Letter became my official channel to help even more people. 

 

Today, it’s my mission: to support one million professionals to land a job where they can thrive, before 2030. It’s why I created Mr. Cover Letter and why I can help you too.
