Hi there,


I presume there should be a section which includes a space for a cover letter/application questions. Cover letters are more typical for paralegal applications though. Where this is not directly specified for a role, I still include one regardless. Often times the additional attachements section should accommodate for this. That said, I still do know of some firms that do not need one, and base the quality of your application on what’s on your CV. In any case, your CV should be very strong and clear - 2 pages max.


On your second question, I also recommend addressing the CL to the specific office, ensuring to include the office address and the proper formalities.


With regards content, you should aim to cover the basic why CL, why the paralegal role in that specific department, what draws you to the firm more generally, and lastly why you.


Best of luck and feel free to pop in any more questions.
