2. A colleage of yours, Alice Watson, has applied for a job in the public relations
department of a large charity. Poverty Action. You have been asked to write a letter
providing a character reference for her. Indicate how long and what capacity you have
worked with her, and how her personal characteristics would make her suited for her
job. Here is part of the letter you received from Poverty Action:
“The job of Public Relations Co-ordinator consists mainly of supervising PR work,
and entails travelling around the country and working with various people in our large
organization. The successful applicant will need good managerial skills and be
committed to the philosophy of our charity”
Write your letter in 220-260 words in an appropriated style
Dear sir or madam,
I am writing to you regarding the Alison Watson job application for the public relations
department of the Poverty Action.
I have felt the obligation of writing this recommendation letter because Alison’s work is
exceptional. I have worked with here for several years and I must say that she could not be
more indicated for this job.
Firstable, she has always been working in the public relations department so she has a lot of
experience, which is always convenient. She always stood out for her impeccable job and
her commitment to do everything better, she is a perfectionist. But after several years
working in our company, she wanted to do something more, she wanted to do a change in
our world and the truth is that she has always been implicated in social matters; that is why
she wants to work in this charity cause.
She was in charge of our PR projects because she is a natural leader due to her many
managerial skills. That is why I think she would be good at dealing with people. But not only
because of this, but also because she can speak several languages such as english,
spanish and french and that is a good point if she has to travel.
It is sad for me having to write this letter since she is leaving our company, but I had to do it
because she could not deserve it more. You should be really honored that she is considering
your workplace, if I were you, I would not let this opportunity go away.
Yours sincerely,
Alicia Navarro.
