I couldn't agree more. Presenting your personality is precisely why I carefully write a friendly, intriguing and upbeat cover letter for each and every job. You can't present a culture fit better than by presenting your personality. I once went to Dublin for a weekend with the sole intention of eating a banana. I returned with a girl to whom I proposed whilst in Dublin and who has now been my wife for over five years. That says more about me, outside of my skill set and experience, than my CV ever could and works wonders for making me stand out, as well as intriguing whoever may be reading my application.
