What if I have a Resumé?
A resumé should be attached to a job application. Even though the details in a resumé are beneficial to the employer, they should be attached to a job application.
Job Application vs Resumé
A job application asks for employment eligibility, personal information, and availability.
A resumé includes information about employment history, skills, and education.
