Emailing resume

Do you put your cover letter in the body of the email or as an attachment like the resume?

an attachment unless the job ad requested otherwise (sometimes they've asked for it to go in the email, sometimes in the email and as an attachment, etc.)

Re: Emailing resume

As an attachment, so that it does not mess up the formatting. However, make sure you indicate in the subject line and/or in the body of the email that you are writing in application of the specific position, with the cover letter and resume attached. I personally won't open an attachment that does not indicate it's a job applicant - way too much spam/viruses out there.

Re: Emailing resume

The cover letter and resume as one attachment. That is, unless specified otherwise.

Re: Emailing resume

Gee whiz, I seem to be in the minority here, but I've always made it the body of the email.

In addition, I would attach it as well.

Re: Emailing resume

I usually put it as an attachment AND in the body of the email. I figured that if they didn't have time to read the attachement, at least they would see my resume at first glance.
