Letter of Reference
Dear ___,

I have been Jane Smith's manager for over five years. While I wish her only the best and fully understand that she must advance her career, I'm truly sorry to see her go. It has been a pleasure having her on my team.

Jane is a professional technical writer of the highest caliber, who meticulously researches, formats, edits and proofs her documents. I've received many compliments from customers who rely on Jane's documentation. Management and personnel in tech support, engineering, technical training, and other departments praise her work.

Jane is an innovative self-starter, who rarely needs supervision. She is punctual and typically exceeds expectations. She handles pressure well, and will voluntarily work overtime. Jane's superior skills and admirable work ethics will be sorely missed.

Jane is an invaluable asset to any technical communications department, and I highly recommend hiring her. If you'd like to discuss her attributes in more detail, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,


Manager, Technical Communications
