Letter of Recommendation-Samples for co-workers

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

Letter of Recommendation for Ralph Morris
 

June 2, 1998


To Whom It May Concern:

I had the pleasant opportunity to work closely with Ralph for six months during his employment at Q & R Services International. He occupied the desk next to mine, and we collaborated on several projects together. I am pleased to say that Ralph is a team player, a kind and sincere individual, and an ideal coworker.

Ralph always did more than his share of the work on the projects we shared. He often took the initiative to get things started and picked up the slack when things were going slowly. I was glad to work with him, since the higher-ups always praised the assignments we completed together. Ralph was nice to everybody at the office, and just about everyone seemed to like him.

I highly recommend Ralph for whatever position he may decide to take up next. He is the type of employee that anyone would be happy to work with.

Sincerely,


Peter S. Simpson
