I met with a few employers and they have shared with me that they look out for CVs that catch their attention. Have I done well in this regard?
The recruitment agency withheld the company's name, so I was unable to address the hiring manager directly. Should I not send them a cover letter in that case?

I appreciate all the advice guys!!
A recruitment agency boss told me I would have a hard time because I used to work for the military, and that I'm switching to an unrelated field WITHOUT a degree. When they see
MINDEF, they auto delete as the civil service isn't that well respected in my country.
When they see I used to draw $4k, and now asking $2.5k, they usually skip it over as according to them, statistics show applicants with such a huge pay cut will not stay longer than 3 mths and leave for a higher offer soon after. I had to remove all allowances and adjust my last drawn pay to an acceptable range...
"But I'm REALLY not a jobhopper..."
"No one would believe you bud, the robot says 90% chance you will, and I'm not betting my commission on you."
sigh...
