Your cover letter is not a summary of your resume; instead, it is an introduction of yourself and an argument for being the best candidate for their company and the specific position. Try and avoid writing a generic cover letter
Personalise your cover letter if possible. Your cover letter should be addressed to a specific person - avoid the "Dear Sir or Madam" format. Standardised letters insult the reviewer's intelligence and indicate that you, the writer, are broadcasting his/her resume to every employer in the area. It also indicates that you have not made an effort to learn more about the company. Even if you do not know the name of the recipient, you usually can find a contact name at the company fairly easily. Go to their company website, and search the "about us" pages for names of individuals to address your cover letter and resume to.
A cover letter is used when you send the job application by post or via email and is generally not carried along in an interview unless you want to keep a copy for reference.
