If you do, which I don't recommend, at least purge the results of any "Not just a b and c -- but also d e and f!" language, because you will be eliminated immediately.

Matter of fact, never use M dashes or "fully loaded" sentences if you can avoid it. I would recommend rewriting all of it line by line to sound identical as possible to the listing to a layperson. In other words, if the listing says must type 60 wpm, don't leave it out that you type 160 and don't include you use dvorak.

Right! Ask for an outline of a cover letter and let your voice compose it. As someone that went through the hiring side of it for a smaller company, wading through AI slop is pretty frustrating. Also having gone through a job change in the recent past, it can feel like an uphill battle to keep filling out applications ad naseum. In the same vein, do you want to work for a company that happily misses good candidates through bad ai filtering? That speaks a lot about the organization right there.
