A cover letter is sent to recruiter with your CV.  Cover letters are generally not read during first selection. But when number of candidates reduced to certain number on based of CV, then cover letter is read to reduce number of candidates further. So don’t underestimate this tool and always send cover letter even it is not mentioned. In one way cover letter shows your writing and reporting skills. Do not mention about salary, unless it is requested, then please give a range of salary.
