    Do interviews then. Cover letters discourages the real people whereas the"drive bys", as you called them, will just crap something out with AI in 2 seconds.

    Asking for interviews also shows you’re as invested in finding a good match for an employee as the employee is in finding a good boss.

      Interviews take a lot of time and resources. We’re hiring someone presently and interviews will take an hour for myself and two staff for each candidate. We’ve decided to interview 10 candidates.
