Dear Mr. {{Name Receiver}}, To Whom It May Concern,

{{Name}} has been my executive assistant for the past four years.

{{Name}} is responsible for maintaining the smooth operation of my office, which involves in-depth
communication with customers, interpreting strategy for senior staff in my absence and keeping me
on task in a fast-paced, high-stress environment.

She is highly competent, well-organized, outgoing and an excellent communicator. {{Name}}

redesigned the office scheduling system, which increased efficiency and improved communication for
everyone involved. She completes all her work with warmth, insight, and professionalism.

{{Name}} has recently completed a Bachelor of Commerce degree and is understandably interested
in a position that challenges her growing skills and abilities. I regret that we have no such position to
offer her at {{Organization}}. Our loss will be another organization’s gain.

I highly recommend {{Name}}. Should you wish to discuss my recommendation further, please do not
hesitate to call. Thanking you.

Yours sincerely,
