Your résumé.
A covering letter ""**You MUST provide a cover letter. In your letter, you must provide concrete and detailed examples that clearly demonstrate how you meet the education and experience requirements listed in the essential qualifications and asset qualifications sections of this page. The screening board cannot make any assumptions about your experience. It is not sufficient to say that you have the required qualifications or to list your current duties. One effective approach would be to use the wording of each experience criterion as a heading and then write one or two paragraphs demonstrating not only that you have the required experience, but how and when it was acquired and ensure that clear and accurate details are provided. Your résumé may be a secondary source to confirm the experience described in the cover letter. If you do not clearly demonstrate that you meet the screening criteria, your application will not be given further consideration.**""
