An Offer of Letter of Recommendation (or For) is a formal document providing evidence of an individual's qualifications and abilities. It is usually written by a supervisor, mentor, professor, or other respected professional who has firsthand knowledge of the individual's work. An Offer of Letter of Recommendation is typically used to support a person's job application, academic admission, or scholarship candidacy. There are two main types of Offer of Letter of Recommendation. The first is a professional letter of recommendation, which is written by a person with professional experience in the same field as the individual applying for the position or program. The second is an academic letter of recommendation, which is written by a professor or instructor who has taught the individual in the past. Both types of Offer of Letter of Recommendation typically include basic identifying information, such as the individual's name, the reason for the recommendation, and information about how long the individual has been known. The letter should also include a discussion of the individual's qualifications and abilities, providing examples to support the assessment. The letter should conclude with a strong endorsement of the individual's abilities and potential.
