To: cinglewood@company.com From: jsmith@email.com Subject: Reference Request Mr. Inglewood, As you know, I worked for Acme Solutions for 5 years. I am currently in the process of applying for a job and would like to ask if I may provide your name and contact information as a reference. The position I am applying for requires a strong work ethic, experience working in a team, and the ability to complete multiple tasks on tight deadlines. I feel that I demonstrated all of these skills in my time with Acme and hope you’ll be able to speak to my experience. In particular, I wanted to remind you of my work with the Gladstone project, where I organized and tracked deliverables for multiple departments. I never missed a deadline or a day of work while I was on Gladstone, and I feel this speaks to my work ethic and organization skills. I greatly appreciate your assistance with this matter and hope that you can cite these accomplishments in my reference. Thank you for taking the time to read this email, and if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. Sincerely, John Smith Phone: (555) 555-0198 Email: jsmith@email.com Downloaded from http://www.wikihow.com
