By writing a cover letter just as is Miriam states, you look prepared, not lazy and ready. Also by writing a cover letter, you let whomever is reading your resume and potentially hiring you let to personally know you a little bit more than just your resume. A cover letter actually gives the person a chance to express themselves as a person; so, a cover letter is a positive piece of writing for both parties especially the person handing it out.
It’s professional, it’s positive and a gentle way of letting a potential employer get to see you and your writing skills even before your resume is being looked at.
