DISCLAIMER: This project is not meant to replace actually writing a cover letter. It is a fun project for me to play around with langchains and test the boundaries of current LLMs. To potential recruiters checking the repository: No, I have not used this tool to create the cover letter for your company - all handcrafted! :)
