To whom it may concern: As the Senior Technician for Technical Support in ---------------, I am please to write this letter on behalf of Mr. Paul Acacia.

If there is one criticism which can be made of Mr. Acacia, it is that his generosity and immense patience are sometimes exploited by the clients he serves. In a sum, based on his professional and personal skills, it is my pleasure to recommend Mr. Acacia to you and I am confident he will be an asset to your firm.

To whom it may concern; This is a letter of recommendation for Mr. Paul Acacia. While Mr. Acacia was in our employ we found him to be an excellent employee. Our business was manufacturing large lightweight panels in advanced composites materials. Mr. Acacia worked both in prototyping and specialized production, as well as in producing the accurate tooling for any of our products. Mr. Acacia exhibited attributes required for any small, and therefore necessarily, efficient business. We found him to be capable of quickly grasping the concepts of new projects to be undertaken, and to be able to plan ways to effect the work required. He was able to function excellently with a minimum of direction, while communicating well when required. He clearly show himself to be able to operate independently while still working well with others. In summary, we feel Mr. Acacia is a highly motivated self-starter and effective manager of his time and resources. He adapts very well to new situations and willingly seeks and accepts challenges to his abilities. We feel that he will be an outstanding asset to any organization that requires to undertake significant tasks, as it is in this environment that he endeavours to do his very capable best.
