When you e-mail your resume to a prospective employer, do you write a note and attach your resume?

Or do you send your cover letter and resume alone.

When you e-mail your resume to a prospective employer, do you write a note and attach your resume?
I would write a note telling what job you want and attach your resume and a cover letter.
Reply:I would suggest writing a note in addition to attaching your resume and cover letter. It suggests that you are taking extra time to introduce yourself and explain what you've attached. Simply attaching the resume might be perceived by some as a 'lazy' approach. It really doesn't take that long to do, and it is (in most cases) the first impression you are leaving with a prospective employer.
