Addressing mail to HR?

Hey guys,

I'm trying to apply for an SA position at a bank that has no website, I don't know the name of anyone in HR so should I just address it to HR? I know the name of the president and an MD, would it be wise to address it to them or is this a big no no?

Maybe Yacht_man just likes to ask a lot of questions or has invited a lot of friends to the site...

Anyways, no one will discredit your application for addressing the letter to the "Hiring Manager" or "Recruiting Director" or some variation of that. Same goes for if you're sending a physical letter -- they'll know where to direct it.
