If you were to apply to this position (and you should!), how will you customize your resume for it? What other next steps would you need to take here?
This cover letter is already pretty customized for this position. It wouldn't be too hard to change up a bit of it to apply at other jobs. I might want to change it from a gist to something a bit more accessable. I also noticed other students giving a bit more design to their, however, in applying to a company such as Microsoft,I think I would want to keep a cover letter as "professional" as possible. Perhaps if I applied to a more UX/UI or graphic design centered job I might want to create a catchier cover letter/resume.
