Hey everyone!


I'm having a bit of a problem here. I'm applying for a job that's been posted on a well known website. At the end of the job description it specifically states that they would like you to submit a properly formatted resume and cover letter, as they won't consider resumes that show you have a lack of concern for details. However... nowhere in the advertisement is the name of the recipient, the company name, or the company address. How am I supposed to submit a properly formatted cover letter without this information? Should I just put my own information at the top and leave the company info out, or put nothing altogether? Should I write them and ask for the information, or does that sound too cocky, as it's almost like pointing out their error. Or third, should I send my cover letter and resume, and say something to the effect of:

This email is in regards to.... If you could please reply to this email with your name, company name, and company address so I may correctly format my cover letter, it would be greatly appreciated. If this is of no concern to you, then please continue to review my cover letter and resume that I have attached to this email. Thank you for your consideration.

Best Regards,

Me

I'm really in a jam here, so any help would be really appreciated. Thanks so much for your time.
