Sample Four—Employment for a Current or Past Summer Employee
Recommendation for Ms. Jane Sorlow:
Jane worked in the Career Office at ABCD College under my supervision during the summer of 2009. During that time I
developed a very high regard for Jane based on the outstanding contributions that she made to the office throughout the
summer. In fact, Jane has been the most productive summer staff member that the office has employed during my 20 year
tenure as Director!
Ms. Sorlow has exhibited a rare combination of speed and accuracy that has enabled her to produce a very high volume of
work while maintaining very high standards for quality. Staff has often said that "I can't believe that Jane is done with that job
already"! Jane was able to follow complex directions in a thorough and detailed manner and also worked very independently
without close supervision when it was appropriate. Rarely did staff need to explain a process or procedure to Jane more than
once and she was particularly adept at learning computer applications. Jane is an organizational whiz who can work on
multilayered tasks and balance multiple projects concurrently.
Jane's upbeat demeanor and can do attitude brightened the office and made her a very low maintenance employee. Her
strong human relations skills enabled her to interface very effectively with many different constituencies including alumni, students
and employers. Jane's strong verbal and written communications skills allowed her to relay information in a clear and coherent
manner. Jane is a naturally caring person with a strong helping orientation who consistently demonstrated a solid service
orientation towards our clients.
As you can tell by now, I am quite impressed with this outstanding young woman and give her my strongest recommendation for
roles which require intelligence, organization, communication skills, service and a positive attitude. Please feel free to contact me
if you need additional information or perspective.
Sincerely,
First Name Last Name
