Not every job we would like to have exists at all. And it is said that around half of unfilled positions are not even advertised. This is where the speculative application comes in. If you are looking for a sample or need help with your cover letter, we have something for you.

Of course, you will still need the classic documents such as certificates and your CV - here, we are only talking about the email, which is the cover letter for your speculative application.

And if you are still looking for the ideal mail app, you can download and test Spark here for free.
