Hi all,

Having learned the material in session 6 now please disscuss the following question.

1. How would you explain the difference between a cover letter and cv?

2. Why are cv's important for job seekers and what information should a job applicant include in
a cv

Have a great discussion

Answer

1. A cover letter is a form of communication between two people in the recruitment process.
Meanwhile, a CV is a curriculum vitae which have contents are a person's life journey as seen
from education and what work they have done.
2. Because a CV is the first thing a company woulds see. The CV contains important and
detailed documents about who the person is applying on recruitment process at a company. The
information that should be included on a CV is personal information, like self description.
Personal information includes full name, email and telephone number. Meanwhile, self-
description includes describing yourself and showing the abilities or skills that you have.
