Can I Send both a Cover Letter and Application Letter to an Employer or is one Sufficient? (Job Seeker Question)

---

It has always been my pleasure to add value to job seekers in Nigeria.
I understand a lot of you have challenges that come in many forms, from nagging questions in your head to the need for useful and helpful resources.
Consequently, my goal on this blog is to help answer your questions, provide you with as much career resources as possible, motivate you and keep you updated with the latest job vacancies in Nigeria.


I've always been open to your questions, and I have made it a point of duty to always answer them no matter how long it takes, since I'm a very busy person (winks).

Recently a job seeker sent me a mail asking if she can send both a Cover Letter and Application Letter to an Employer or whether one is sufficient .

Answer: 
Yes it's perfectly acceptable to send both a cover letter and application letter. However, one alone, could also be sufficient.

I have made a post (Difference between Cover Letter and Application Letter) on the difference between a cover letter and application letter. My post clearly differentiates between the two documents and will help you decide when and how to use both a cover letter and an application letter.
