Almost Spent the Whole Day Searching for Cover Letter Writing Tips
Whenever I look at examples of successful cover letters, they all say similar things, but why does mine come across as plain? I'm just stacking up generic phrases... Today, all I did was turn the computer on and off again. I'm so frustrated.

Haha, I was in exactly this state too.
Well, I think it's natural that all the acceptance examples look similar. Editing services all make them in the same cookie-cutter way. Rather than following others, what worked was selling one well-founded experience of my own. Of course, finding that is the hardest part lol
Where's the source?
Still, don't beat yourself up. Even cover letters that look great were usually revised by people around them two or three times. I organized my résumé first and then wrote my cover letter, and it was much easier. You need an outline before the writing can come together.
