rather basic online application question
(OP)
Someone asks...
Online job application asks for basic information (name, contact info) and an uploaded resume.
Also enables one, optionally, to upload a couple of other files. What would those be for? Cover letter? Is it expected?

RE: rather basic online application question
We just had a summer intern interviewing, whose cover letter started off with something like, "If you're looking for an ideal summer intern, look no further, you've found him. ... I've wanted to be an engineer since I was a child." While a bit over the top, it gave a different aspect to his resume that started off with a 4.86 weighted GPA in high school. So, there's something to start talking about.

Cover letter might be good, or samples of work/portfolio etc.

Thanks for the chuckle. I I worked for you, and knew that was you that said that, you would be getting one of those special cover letters, just to see your face.
