Didn't Carolyn Haley say it well! As one who has hired a couple of techncal
writers, I expect the resume and cover letter to represent a professional
writer's final product. One guy I hired got the interview based on his
great, unsolicited cover letter (we had not advertised).

I edit anything and make the writer look great.
