[SPQR]

I need a little help with my cover letter and resume. I made the cover letter with a work experience and formation resume inside, is it correct? Is it the best way to send the letter cover, and the extended Curriculum in attached file at the mail?
Please give me a hand reading the cover and suggesting modifications and corrections

Don't use contractions.
Don't capitalise 'you'.
I wouldn't use a direct question.
I'd suggest that the interview should be at their convenience to be polite, then negotiate.
