Job Requirement: Ability to walk in Hiring managers shoes.

I enjoy Guy Kawasaki's blog on marketing. If you are currently in the position of marketing your self (ie "looking for a job") you might benefit from his posting today, and how several applicants for a job he was trying to fill "took themselves out of the running". Cover letters might not be important to some hiring managers - or when working with a recruiter, but Guy thinks highly of them.
