Leia is a delight to work with – a team player with a positive, can-do attitude all the way. I
wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again if the opportunity arose.
Should you have any further questions, feel free to reach me at +10000000.

Dear Mr. Skywalker,
I am writing to recommend Leia Thompson. She worked with me at Acme Inc. as a Senior
Product Manager and reported to me in my position as VP of Engineering.
As an employee, Leia was always reliable and resourceful. During her time in my team, she
managed to conduct high-impact user research and make a number of key recommendations
that resulted in an improved product (and subsequently increased sales).
I’ve always put a premium on initiative and willingness to learn among my team members and
Leia never failed to deliver on both fronts.
An example was when she suggested we create a regular internal meet up where more
senior employees could answer questions from other employees about their work. She was
the first to take advantage of the knowledge these meet ups offered and implemented it in her
own work.
