Apologies! I was asking about whether there are any tips for the application itself (i.e. what the cover letter should contain)?

Many thanks!

Ah! For the cover letter you're defending yourself at the same time that you're showing you have researched the company. Find the skills/traits that the company wants and each paragraph should be against one (or a combo) of those themes...stating how you match that.
