Simple Recommendation Letter

To Whom It May Concern: Dear Mr./Mrs. {{Name}}, / To Whom It May Concern,
I am very pleased to write a character reference for {{Name}}.
The first thing that came to my mind when I learned that you have a vacancy in your office was Mr. {{Name}}. He is of high education but humble in character.
I am recommending him based on the facts on his personae and on the years that I have known this fellow. He achieved a Master’s degree and graduated with honors. He then proceeded to work for a respected company abroad for several years before deciding to stay here in the country for good. He came to me asking if I know of any job available for his qualifications and as luck would have it, I learned of your job vacancy.
I am personally approving of his acceptance to your company, as I believe he would be a great addition to your workforce. As a company asset, he will be of much help in making your company a more efficient, dependable, and honest endeavor.
I hope that my recommendation will enable you to accept him. I assure you that I am not mistaken in judging his skills and character, as I have known him for a long time already. 
I would certainly recommend {{Name}} for any task where enthusiasm, hard work and trustworthiness are valued. Thank you. Yours sincerely,

There are a few basic requirements for a Recommendation Letter. Every letter should respect the following principles:

  • Structured and written to highlight strengths of the person you recommend;
  • Clean, error-free, and easy to read;
  • Provide descriptions of your contributions to the work/academic environment related to completed tasks on time or your strengths;
  • Always use action verbs to describe your accomplishments, skills, and strengths;
  • Make sure to use the active voice which indicates that you completed tasks and demonstrated desirable behaviors. Since the passive voice can indicate that events happened with or without your active involvement;
  • Explain how you performed the responsibilities required, and therefore it’s good to study some appealing anecdotes;
  • If possible, a statement indicating people would re-hire you or collaborate with you on another project;
  • Immediately clear about the purpose and position the person is seeking;
  • Using common business letter format;
  • No copying of exact words/phrases from sample letters without checking the context;
  • Uses the correct name of the University or organization;
  • Contact information including his or her full name, appropriate title, address, phone number, and/or e-mail address;
  • Enthusiastic! Show off the character and personality of the person;
  • Expands upon their resume; do not repeat it verbatim in your reference letter as well.

The critical ingredient is getting off your butt and doing something. It’s as simple as that. A lot of people have ideas, but there are few who decide to do something about them now. Not tomorrow. Not next week. But today. The true entrepreneur is a doer, not a dreamer. | Nolan Bushnell
