Cover Letter
It is a written document which commonly submitted along with a job application
outlining the applicant’s credentials and interest within open position. In addition to this,
cover letter is one of only two documents which sent to potential employers. Along with this,
it is important for candidate who is applying for jo to write cover letter in proper manner
because it will decide that individual will called for interview or not (Olson and Smyth,
2017). Although, some common mistakes in cover letter can sink job application. Moreover,
Cover letter always attached with CV while applying job specific job position. In this report

International.
