Example Recommendation Letters

Recommending a former team member

To Whom It May Concern, I am pleased to recommend Jamie Lee, who worked under my direct supervision as a Junior Developer for two years. Jamie consistently delivered high-quality work, including leading a migration project that reduced page load times by 30%. Jamie would be a valuable addition to any engineering team, and I recommend them without reservation. Sincerely, Morgan Diaz Engineering Manager

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Being too vague — 'a great employee' says less than a specific example
• Forgetting to state your relationship and how long you've known the person
• Making it overly long — one focused page is more effective
• Leaving out contact information for follow-up questions
