The application or cover letter

When applyiny for a job vacancy, or making a speculative application to a company where you would like to work, your CV must always be accompanied by an introductory letter. If you are sending a hard copy of your CV, the letter will be printed out and sent along with the CV. When e-mailing your CV as an attachment, the latter will form text part accompanying the e-mail. The quality of the letter should be high as it provides an opening shot; it creates the first impression about you. An impressive letter can sometimes overcome the odd weakness in a CV; conversely, a poor letter might cause a perfectly good CV to be thrown into the trash can.
