You may have done a great job of customizing your resume and cover letter to each and every submission. However, just because you know how to market yourself doesn't mean you're a good fit. They need to know if they are the right company for you, or a means to an end. They want an employee who has the skillsets for the position, similar core values to their company or mission statement, and a personality match for the culture of their brand and their team. They are looking to build a relationship. They need to know if you're looking for the same, versus just looking for a job.
