I've tried it in German and Chinese. Both language worked fine, only need minor editing. It is not limited to English and it can also write the answer to the interview question.

ChatGPT is a chatting device, so when you are done you can start a new discussion, give it the job description, resume and cover letter, then ask it to roleplay a mean HR having a bad day to train your interview skills.

Be careful with this. These conversation engines can create something that sounds reasonable, but are actually close to nonsense. I cannot always tell the difference between a ChatGPT paragraph and one written by a random Internet user, but I can tell the difference between a ChatGPT paragraph and one written by someone who is knowledgeable in a field I am very familiar with.

It might be a good way to create a framework, but since cover letters are ultimately read by people, even a minor mistake might be enough for a potential interviewer to decide to not bring you in.

At the very least, make sure you have the entire cover letter memorized. It is really embarrassing when a candidate seems to not be aware of what their cover letter and CV say.
