Homz Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Do cheesy power phrases actually work for cover letters of you resume'. Here are a few examples. If anyone mentions "power lunches" in their post I will not be be responsible for my actions. "I thrive on challenge." "This experience has provided me with a keen appreciation for your firm." "I am highly motivated." "What you need and what I can do sound like a match." "I am a self starter." "I have excellent communication skills."
