It explains to the employer how you heard of them, why you are a great fit for the job, and asks them to interview you. The resume is the document that shows your qualifications for the job. Always produce a resume and a cover letter targeted to the job in question. <div>Dick Davis <br><br><div dir="ltr">Sent from my iPhone</div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On Jun 12, 2021, at 4:22 PM, Ms. Jamelle Word via Job-Discussions <job-discussions@nfbnet.org> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=us-ascii"><meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 15 (filtered medium)"><style><!--
