Sample Recommendation Letter

June 25, 1980

Dr. Leo Jhocson
Executive Vice President
National University
M.F. Jhocson, Sampaloc, Manila

Dear Dr. Jhocson:

I can sincerely recommend Ms. Nora Lim of 1123 G. Tuazon, Sampaloc, Manila who has applied for the position of an executive secretary in your institution.

During the three years that she was with me I found her work very neat, careful, and accurate.  In fact, I can truthfully say that she is one of the best secretaries I have employed.  She has a good knowledge of shorthand and typewriting, and an excellent general background, which make her all the more valuable for an executive position  She is enthusiastic about whatever tasks she is performing and is willing to devote as much time and energy as is necessary to have things done to perfection.

I think you will find Ms. Lim a valuable helper.  I myself am very sorry to lose her, but as she wised to enter a broader field, she gave up her position with me.

If I can supply any further information, I shall be glad to do so.

Very truly yours,

Eileen Fernandez
Personnel Manager
