Sample Recommendation Letter
Sample1
Subject: Letter of Recommendation for Mr. James Miller
To Whom It May Concern:
James worked under my supervision as an editorial assistant from September 10, 1997, until April 5, 1998. His
responsibilities included conducting research and interviews, fact checking, and writing brief front-of-the-book pieces, in
addition to some clerical duties. During the course of his employment, James proved himself to be an able employee, a
hard worker, and a talented writer.
I was quite impressed by James' ability to complete all work assigned to him on time, if not before it was due. His
research was always thorough and comprehensive, and his fact checking always accurate. We sometimes allow our editorial
assistants to do some writing, but James' talents prompted us to assign him more pieces than the norm. His writing is clear,
concise, and evocative.
Overall, James is a very conscientious and able employee. I certainly believe he has what it takes to make a wonderful
editor someday, and I am sad to see him leave. I strongly recommend James for any mid-level editorial position in
publishing.
Sincerely,
Edward P. Larkin
Executive Editor

Re: Letter of Recommendation for Cynthia Randall
To Whom It May Concern:
Cynthia Randall worked at Trey Research for more than seven years. Cynthia began her employment as an entry-level technical editor. After three years, she was promoted to Documentation Manager. In that new position, she reported to me and managed the work and performance of four employees.
Cynthia is a bright and personable individual. She is highly self-motivated and well capable of achieving any goal she sets her mind to. Cynthia's quick promotion to Documentation Manager is an example of that. She learned new technologies promptly and applied them in her daily work. Trey Research employees soon perceived Cynthia as a valuable resource and looked to her for innovative direction of our documentation set.
Cynthia welcomes leadership opportunities and meets her deadlines on time.
Trey Research needs more employees like Cynthia. She is an asset to any company that hires her.
If you would like additional information about Cynthia, you can telephone me at 425.555.3456.
Sincerely,
David M. Bradley
Director of Management
Trey Research
