6. Unsolicited Application
Letter
 A cold call cover letter (also known as an unsolicited cover letter) is a document
you send with your resume for a position that isn't officially open.
 Just like a cover letter for a resume, a cold cover letter highlights your skill set
and job experience to convince the recruiter that you're the person for the job.
 A job seeker may desire employment with a particular company that has not
posted open job requisitions.
 In this case, an unsolicited application letter is used as an inquiry about possible
openings and to gain a hiring managers attention.
 The letter may be addressed to the head of the Human Resource department or
to the manager of a particular division.
 The letter is most likely to be read when it is addressed to a particular person
rather than the generic to ‘whom it may concern’ salutation.
