Job application materials refer to all the documents and information that a job applicant is required to submit during the hiring process. These may include a resume or CV, cover letter, references, transcripts, letters of recommendation, and any other supporting documentation that showcases the candidate's qualifications, skills, experience, education, and achievements relevant to the position they are applying for. The materials vary depending on the job and employer’s requirements but generally include documents that provide evidence of an applicant's suitability for a particular role or company.
