What is good to include about a person when writing a letter of recommendation?

Answer 1

It depends on how you know the person. Concentrate on his abilities; if you have worked with him, note some examples of times he has gone above and beyond the call of duty. If you just know him personally cite some examples that prove he is honest or punctual or trustworthy. Your letter should also be written based on who will be receiving it. If you are sending the letter to a school, concentrate on how he will be an asset to that school. If it is a letter for an employer, concentrate on how he will be a good employee. Tell the truth and if you think of something not so nice, don't lie - just omit. Use as many real-life examples as you can. Instead of saying, "Joe is great because he is." Say, "Joe is great because he volunteers at the food bank every Saturday."

Also, be sure to check your grammar and spelling.

Answer 2

That you know the individual to be honest, loyal, self starter, stays with a project until it's finished, works well with others whether supervising or reporting to them, dependable, always on time, willing to work late or come in early for the sake of the company, would like to have this person on my team.
Any of the about depends on your relationship with the person, some will apply if the person is a former employee or co worker, others if your relationship was as a teacher or neighbor. Good luck!
