Sure, this is close to what I use (I've tried to change it up a bit so I don't give up too much info), and I've included prompts for what to fill in. I'll admit it is very generic at this level, but you should be able to take these bones and make your own monster out of it ๐Ÿ˜

Just remember to sell yourself to them, even if it feels icky and gross, that's what job applications are. If you do exaggerate in your cover letter/resume, keep it reasonable and be prepared to support it if/when you get interviewed!

Because I'm bored and feeling silly while kiillng time:

Jason Vorhees

To whom it may concern,

I discovered your Summer Camp Slasher position on StabbedIn, and I would like to know more about this position. I am a relentless killer who is up for a new challenge in murdering teens at camp. I think that I would be a good fit for this position because I have the ability to teleport, survive being shot/stabbed/set on fire, and am a dedicated problem solver.

I have 40 years of experience in menacing camp counsellors and have multiple endorsements from various local police departments. I am a dedicated killer who will keep coming back until the job is done or I am relieved of the position.

I believe this position will be a good fit for me, and I believe I will bring a lot of dread to the camp. Thank you for your consideration for this position, I look forward to meeting to discuss this opportunity and demonstrate my skills. I can be reached at the listed phone number or via email at [email protected].

Regards,

Jason Vorhees

Is Jason Vorhees a real person?
