Using AI to draft outreach messages and cover letters

Summary
AI (e.g. Claude) speeds up first drafts of cover letters, cold outreach, and referral asks when you give it enough context.
For cover letters: paste the job posting and your resume. Ask it to connect your specific experience to the role, not a generic template.
For outreach: say who you’re messaging and why. Ask for a short, specific draft (most of these land better brief).
Generate 2 to 3 tone variations (more formal / more casual) and pick what fits the person and company.
Always personalize before sending: swap in specifics, sound like you, cut anything overly polished or generic.
