5. 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.
