How do I know if an employer wants a cover letter or transcript?
A resume will always be required, and sometimes employers will also require other documents such as cover letters and unofficial transcripts. You must submit all the required documents when you reply. (You will know that a document is required because there will be a red asterisk next to the box. If not required, there will be no asterisk.) If employers simply “request” additional documents, you may choose to submit the additional materials if you wish. Some employers will only accept resumes and do not want to receive additional materials, in which case you will not be able to submit them. Read this section carefully, as occasionally employers will provide additional application information in the space.
