Answer to Question 1

Answer: TRUE
Explanation: Take the same care with your application letter that you took with your rsum. A poorly written application letter can prompt employers to skip over your rsum, even if you are a good fit for a job. Staffing specialist Abby Kohut calls the application letter a writing-skills evaluation in disguise and emphasizes that even a single error can get you bounced from contention.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: Whenever you mail, email, hand-deliver, or upload your rsum, you should include an application letter, also known as a cover letter, to let readers know what you're sending, why you're sending it, and how they can benefit from reading it.
