Today, my cheating ex-boyfriend was offered the job we both interviewed for. I helped him with his cover letter before I found out about the affair. I've been unemployed for almost two years. FML

The cover letter doesn't get the job, it gets an interview. The interview gets the job. The best candidate won.

He didn't get the job because of a cover letter. He's obviously more qualified for the job so YDI.

Not sure how things are in Ontario right now (where OP is from) but I know that it took me three years to get a job just working a cash register.

two years? serious? how do you live? what do you do 40 hours a week? I suggest for those 40 hours looking for a job. move perhaps to a better town... need I continue?

shouldn't you have been able to write a better cover letter yourself. Plus why would your ex take job advice from somebody unemployed for 2 years.

Thats ironic in a really sad way, but it lets you know that you are good at writing cover letter. Apply to other places and you will be ale to get a job eventhough it's tough and give yourself credit for him having the job even though that may be more frustrating. You could not have foreseen everything that happened!
