As an employer, work colleague or friend, you may have during your career, to write a letter of recommendation. If you do not know how or what to include, read the following tips and they will guide you on the structure to adopt when writing letters. This advice may also be helpful if you ask a person not familiar with the procedures to follow to write a letter of recommendation for you.

First paragraph: Begin by specifying the functions of the person you recommend when you have known and how long you know. If the person is an employee or colleague, enter the duration of his employment, the responsibilities of his post, and all the important projects she has undertaken. You may want to include a brief description of the nature and activities of his company. You can also give, in one sentence, your opinion or a summary of the person recommended.

Second paragraph: In this paragraph, make a detailed assessment of the person as an employee. Describe its performance in relation to specific tasks and list his achievements. What are its strengths and weaknesses professional? How would you describe your relationship with this person?

Third paragraph: To sum it all, you can provide a general description of the person and his behavior. In all, the person she was responsible, polite, friendly or unpleasant, lazy, malicious? Finally, indicate how you would recommend that person for the position she found: absolutely, strongly, with some reservations or not.

Before writing the letter, ask the person to get a list of its projects in order to know its work. Finally, if you do not maintain many relationships with the person, perhaps you should refuse to write a letter of recommendation, instead of composing a wave and cold.

Strong recommendation letter

Subject: letter of recommendation for Mr. Jean-Michel Meunier

To Whom It May Concern:

Jean-Michel has worked under my responsibility as an editorial in the September 10 .... 5 April .... He was in charge of research, interviews, verifying information, writing summaries of cover and the work of proofreading. Throughout his collaboration with Editions Jouhancourt, Jean-Michel has been a very good employee, a hard worker and a talented writer.

The ability of Jean-Michel to complete on time the tasks assigned to it made me feel strong. His research has always been thorough and insightful, and his checks still relevant information. We occasionally offer short work of writing to our editorial assistants, but quickly proved the talents of Jean-Michel we quickly encouraged to require more writing than we do normally. His writing is clear, concise and full of meaning.

But above all, Jean-Michel is a very conscientious employee and great potential. I am convinced he has in hand all the assets to one day become a brilliant editor, and I regret his departure. I highly recommend Jean-Michel for any intermediary function in the publishing field.

Best regards,

Édouard Dutertre,
Editor

Letter to a friend for recommendation

Dear Peter,

I'm writing to solicit your help in my job search. I just write a resume to begin my exploration, hoping to find a new job challenging.

Because of the crisis in the oil industry, I think changing industry. I now seek a position in the field of management or marketing services and technical products.

I intend to focus on my experience as a manager and my training as an engineer. If necessary, I am ready to move in that Nathalie is not opposed.

If you would, I can count on your recommendation. I will keep you aware of the various contacts for which I have mentioned your name as a reference, so that you know in advance who might call you. Tell me what you think.

Could you also send a copy of my resume to potential partners or friends who would be the party which had an innovative point of view and bold? You can also give me their details so that I contacted personally.

I willingly accept any advice from you. In advance, thank you for your help!

Letter of recommendation from a colleague

Subject: letter of recommendation for Morris Raphael

To Whom It May Concern:

I was fortunate to work closely with Raphael for six months at P & J Transport. We were neighbor’s office and have collaborated on several projects. I am delighted to say that Raphael is a great teammate, a kind and honest person and an ideal colleague.

Raphael has greatly contributed to the success of our work. It has often taken initiatives and provided the impetus when things did not progress. It was a pleasure to work with him, and the projects we have developed together have often been appreciated by our superiors. Raphael has always been very pleasant with her colleagues and everyone had a very good opinion of him.

I recommend very strongly Raphael for any post to which he would like to access. It is typical of the employee with whom everyone wants to work.

Best regards,

Pierre Duval

Letter of recommendation with reservations

Subject: letter of recommendation for Lise Jouvel

To Whom It May Concern:

Jouvel Lise has worked in our company as a developer of Internet 10 June 20 .. August 20 to 22 .. It was to convert Photoshop designs into HTML files, monitor the execution of CGI files and create interactive programs in DHTML. During the fifteen months she spent with us, Lise has been shown to be far from the ideal employee.

Although most of his work was satisfactory, Lise has always had great difficulty in meeting production deadlines. Moreover, much of its programs contain many errors. His superiors tried to make constructive criticism, but Lise has done nothing to improve the quality of his work and was resistant to any form of criticism. Lise's behavior is probably its major flaw.

Nevertheless, Lise has undoubtedly the potential to become a brilliant programmer. But the fact that it does not accept the criticism seriously hampers his career. I hesitate to recommend Lise for a job where he would accept comments on what it does or to a position where it should show signs of real progress. Lise is able to handle basic programming work.

 
Best regards,

Production Manager

Letter of job search on the recommendation of a friend

Madam,

Raymond Halimi, who is one of my former classmates, advised me to contact you to present my candidacy for the position of patient in your new unit. I put my experience, my enthusiasm and my knowledge of foreign languages for the benefit of your medical service.
Following my studies in sociology, I worked in a hospital as a volunteer interpreter for the post: this function was to facilitate relationships between a community of patients from Eastern Europe and the doctors of hospital. This experience has clearly felt the need to provide support to ethnic communities in increasing numbers in order to optimize the medical care that can be provided.

This desire to get involved has only increased since I work in the Paris region. I discovered how enthusiastically your care unit attached importance to this problem. As my CV, my career and my aspirations seem to be very close to the profile required to join your team.
I hope soon to talk about my candidacy. Thank you in advance for giving me your attention. I will call you next week so we can fix an appointment.
 
Best regards,

Jacques Matisseau
