Don`t bother to get it notarized, all they have to do is call to get it verified, if they wish, which is what they will probably do anyway, to verify your employment history, Also, in order for a document to be notarized, it must be signed in the presence of the notary. You would have to get your boss to go to the notary, or get the notary to come to your boss, all in all, not a good idea.

You don't need to notarize the letter. You can tell the prospective employer you have letters of reference,but they usually only ask for them if they're seriously considering to hire you. Generally this would be after at least a first interview.. Then what usually happens is they ask for a contact # to verify the reference.

It would be pointless to get it notarized. I've been an office manager for years and I've never seen anyone hand in a notarized letter of recommendation.

A notorized letter isn't necessary. Typically, you make photcopies of the original letter to give to prospective employers. You keep the original.
While letters of recommendation are nice, potential employers are still going to want to verify your previous employment.

Actually it would probably look a little silly to have it notarized. I've never seen one that was. But if you want to ask your former supervisor to have his or her signature notarized, go ahead.

A letter of reference from 2 years in the past is advantageous, it would not often be seen old, quite in case you haven't any longer labored for those 2 years. in case you have been employed after that, determine you have touch counsel to your final business organization to boot via fact the letter of reference from the previous business organization.

Yes, it would be going too far. Just get a plain letter of recommendation, preferably on company letterhead.

No honey you don't need to have it notorized. Just make sure you have it on company letterhead and his/her signature in blue.
