Dear Mr. Love,
It is my pleasure to strongly recommend Wendy Jones for the Jr. Data Analyst role with Cloud Clearwater. I am Rosa Gomez, a project manager at Crane & Jenkins. I have 12 years of experience working in the tech industry and have seen many young professionals come and go. Ms. Jones is one individual I have worked with who uniquely stands out.
During our time together, Wendy displayed great talents in data analytics. When we first met, I was immediately impressed with Wendy, but during the time worked together, her understanding of analyzing data to achieve results for our company grew far more than that of her peers.
It’s not just her technical skills that impress me, however. Wendy was a joy to work with because of her amazingly positive attitude and ability to communicate across teams. Her focus and attention to detail were also necessary and valued not just by myself, but by her peers, who often relied on her to get the job done.
I am absolutely confident that Wendy would be a great fit at Cloud Clearwater. Not only will she bring the kind of skills and experiences you’re looking for in an applicant, she will quickly become an asset and help your company grow in any way she can.
If you need more information or specific examples, please do not hesitate to contact me at 555-111-9999. As a recommendation letter likely only provides a snapshot of her talents and achievements, I would be happy to further elaborate on my time working with her.
Sincerely,
Rosa Gomez
Sr. Marketing Manager
