To whom it may concern: June 6, 20xx

It is with pleasure that I write this letter of recommenda-
tion for Carl Springer, who was a marketing intern at our
firm for two months in spring of 20xx. Mr. Springer per-
formed many of the duties of a regular staff member such as
attending staff meetings, working on assignments, and sitting
in on presentations to clients. It was with great professional-
ism, intelligence, and dedication that Mr. Springer took it
upon himself to write several pages of new content for our
company Web site that are now incorporated into our site.

Although my firm doesn’t currently have an opening for
a new staff member, I would certainly not hesitate to hire
Mr. Springer immediately if it did. In the short time that Mr.
Springer was with us, he added a great deal of enthusiasm,
team spirit, and innovative marketing ideas. I would highly
recommend Mr. Springer to any company seeking a sharp
and creative marketing professional.

If you have any questions about Mr. Springer’s perfor-
mance as an intern here at our firm, please feel free to con-
tact me.

Sincerely,

Signature of Supervisor (This is mandatory)
