    Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!

    How does graduate recruitment actually review your application? Do they just bin the app if they something they don't like in the 1st question or paragraph or do they look at the application as a whole?

    Just wondering is it okay to use the same experience/job/role to explain different skills/motivations in a cover letter? Don't want to sound like I'm repeating myself or have limited experinces.
