Reference Letters

On July 10, 2012

Reference letters have the power to make a difference and give an added advantage to the applicants when they are seeking admission or employment. Generally, they are categorized as Academic, Character and Employment reference letters.

Before describing the positive points of the candidate make sure to establish your own credentials first. For that, it is best to write the reference letter on a formal letter-head which has the details of your job-title, name of your work place and contact information.

The first paragraph must state briefly who you are and in what capacity you know the applicant. It is also good to mention how well and for how long you have known the candidate. These details are important as they add to the credibility of the letter.

The body of the letter must concentrate on the positive aspects of the candidate, by giving specific examples. These positive facets must be those that are not clearly visible in a formal application form.

Remember to keep the letters sincere without going overboard with words of praise. It is best to highlight the plus-points again in the last paragraph, before concluding.

Character Reference for Court

On July 10, 2012

To,

Jane Austen

Chief magistrate

City Court

456 Yankee Doodle Lane

New York, New jersey 4908

Dated: 2nd of May 2012

Subject: Character reference letter

Respected Mrs. Austen,

I am writing this letter to refer Owen Stiller who is appearing before your court as has been accused of drunken driving.

The reason I am writing this letter is that I feel strongly about his character and can’t believe that he can commit a crime of drunken driving. Owen comes across as a very soft spoken and shy person. As much I know him he is not into drinking alcohol. He is a very responsible individual so even if he accidentally had drunk, he would never drive after drinking. He is a very good person from heart and has a clean record.

I am really concerned about this person’s future and can assure you that he has been accused wrongly.

Yours sincerely,

Nathan Lee

Your Honor,

I am writing this letter to refer Jack Ripper in regards to his character.

I would like to introduce myself as Luke Wilson, working in the position of an assistant manager in Raw Materials Limited. I have worked with Jack for ten years; he is an ex colleague. He is a very hard working person and everyone in the organization has immense respect for him. There has not been a single incident when there was a complaint against him. He is a cheerful and a very helpful person. He is also part of community activities and contributes to charity and other social events.

I was shocked to know that he is being tried for in the court. Please let me know if I can be of further help.

Yours sincerely,

He deserves to get the citizenship card and so I request you to issue him the same.
