It is my pleasure to strongly recommend Marissa Gonzales for the Jr. Data Analyst role With
Blackwater. I am Jean Gomez, a project manager at David and Jensen. I have a 12 years of
experience working in the tech industry and have seen many young professionals come and go.
Ms. Gonzales is one individual I have worked with who uniquely stands out.

During our time together, Marissa displayed great talents in data analytics. When we first met ,I
was immediately impressed with Marissa, but during the time we worked together, her
understanding of analyzing data to achieve results for our company grew far more than that of
her peers.

It's not just her technical skills that impress me, however Marissa was a joy to work with because
of her amazingly positive attitude and ability to communicate across teams. Her focus and
attention to detail were also necessary and valued not just by myself, but by her peers, who often
relied on her to get the job done.

I am absolutely confident that Marissa would be a great fit at Blackwater. Not only will she bring
the kind of skills and experiences you're looking for in an applicant, she will quickly become an
asset and help your company grow in any way she can. If you need more information or specific
examples, please do not hesitate to contact me at 8734-85-01. As a recommendation letter likely
only provides a snapshot of her talents and achievements, I would be happy to further elaborate
on my time working with her.

I have been asked to write this letter of reference because our company will no longer be
operating its printing plant that has served Fairmont Litho Arts Inc. for more than a decade

Fairmont Litho Arts has been one of our top customers for the past 12 years. Accordingly, I
have no hesitation in recommending them as a company with which to do business.

In addition to doing business with his company for many years, i have known the president and
founder of Litho Arts, Glen Ralston, for over 25 years. We were classmates and teammates at
McGill University in the late 1970s. Knowing him for so long am quite comfortable in vouching
for him as a great individual as well as a concerned and active citizen in this community.

As far as a company to do business with, Fairmont Litho Arts Inc. is one of the best that we
have ever dealt with. Its practice has always been to pay our printing invoices within the 30-
day time limit. We did significant amounts of business, especially during the past 5 years, and I
cannot recall a late-payment situation involving that company. Billing disputes were rare, and
those only required some minor additional documentation for clarification and resolution.

Fairmont was one of the best companies that I have ever dealt with from a change-order and
work scheduling perspective. We maintained close communication with the company's
production people and they always kept us apprised of their upcoming workload. Thus,
scheduling jobs on our presses was never a problem. In addition, Fairmont's graphic people
always provided us with high quality finished artwork, and it was unusual for additional charges
to be made after the plates had been produced.

Based on our experience, any printing company should be very pleased to be the one that
Fairmont Litho Arts selects to do business with once we have closed our door

Please allow me to introduce the bearer of this letter, Ms. Catherine Nasher. Catherin is the
architect that i spoke to you about last week when we talked on the phone.

As i explained, i am working on a feasibility study for one of the university programs here in
Montreal that is considering the development of an Executive Management Training Centre.
Part of my study involves having to estimate the possible fit-up costs for the proposed new
Centre

The client is intent on making sure they get a "state-of-the-art" executive training facility.
Naturally I thought of my alma mater at the Ottawa U. Executive MBA Center, as the perfect
example as to how it's done.

As we discussed, if you would be kind enough to have one of your staff members spend about
one hour giving Catherine a tour of your facilities there, I would very much appreciate it.
Catherine tells me that it is important that she take the tour when the classroom and case
rooms will not be in use, since she will need to take various measurements

As you suggested, Catherine contacted Sharon Hudson, one of your staff to make sure that she
would be traveling there at a time when it would be possible to do everything she needs to do.

Thanks so much Professor Morrissey, I really appreciate your cooperation on this matter.

The purpose of this letter is to formally and publicly commend Shannon Berloitz for the
our new product line. In my opinion, the level of service that Ms. Berloitz extended to our
excellent service she provided to Target-Track Inc. throughout the ramp-up and launch of
company was far beyond our expectations.

I have never before written a letter like this on an entirely unsolicited basis. However, in
this case I was so impressed by the support and service provided by Ms. Berloitz and her
small team of marketing and communications specialists that I felt compelled to go on
record with my praise. These people truly deserve it. In an era where exceptional
one-to-one customer service excellence has virtually disappeared from our industry, the
work that Shannon and her team did should be held up as an example for others to try to
emulate.

What particularly impressed me about the level of service provided by Ms. Berloitz et al
was that there were no additional financial rewards involved. It appears that it was simply
the team's extraordinary commitment to excellence in customer service and support that
motivated them to always go the extra mile. Their example even had a positive impact on
the attitude and productivity of our staff !

In closing, I believe that Shannon Berloitz and her team truly deserve to be congratulated
and rewarded for providing customer service and support well beyond the expectations of
our company on the Target-Track project.

It is with sincere regret that i must inform you that your employment at Addis
Inc. will be terminated as of Friday January 31, 20xx.

As you know, the Downsizing TasK Force delivered their report to the executive committee
in late October. Among the task force recommendations was the elimination of all
temporary and contract positions. Since you occupy a temporary position, your position is
automatically subject to the task force recommendations.

I would like to make it absolutely clear that in no way does your termination reflect that the
company is in any way unhappy with your work performance over the past 18 months. In
tact, you have been highly regarded as one of our most productive contract staffers.
Unfortunately, you and the other non-permanent staff that are being let go are simply a
reflection of the general economic downturn in the fiber-optics industry over the past year.

In an effort to try to reduce the impact of this termination, the company has worked out a
severance arrangement that Will give you one weeks pay for each month you worked
beyond 12 months. In your case, this will amount to six (6) weeks of severance pay. In
addition, your medical and dental coverage will remain in effect until the end of the
severance period. You will soon receive a letter from the Human Resources Department
with all of the details on the severance package.

Thomas, given your qualifications and proven abilities, I am confident that you will be able
to find another position in the relatively near future. If you would like, I would be pleased to
write a recommendation letter for your, to help with your job search.
