DD21 is applying for a job that asks for electronically submitted material. The ad specifically asks for a cover letter and resume, submitted via email. She is unsure about the appropriate format for this. What do you think? Should she:
(1) Use the body of the email as her cover letter and attach a resume;
(2) Write an email saying "I am applying for job XYZ as advertised in ABC; attached please find my cover letter and resume. Thank you for considering my application," and then attach both cover letter and resume;
OR
(3) Follow format for #2 but create ONE document containing both the cover letter and the resume?
I am from the hard-copy days so have no idea of the appropriate format for applying for a job via email.
