Subject: Letter of Recommendation for Mr. James Miller
To Whom It May Concern:
James worked under my supervision as an editorial assistant from September
10, 1997, until April 5, 1998. His responsibilities included conducting
research and interviews, fact checking, and writing brief front-of-the-book
pieces, in addition to some clerical duties. During the course of his
employment, James proved himself to be an able employee, a hard worker, and
a talented writer.
I was quite impressed by James' ability to complete all work assigned to him
on time, if not before it was due. His research was always thorough and
comprehensive, and his fact checking always accurate. We sometimes allow our
editorial assistants to do some writing, but James' talents prompted us to
assign him more pieces than the norm. His writing is clear, concise, and
evocative.
Overall, James is a very conscientious and able employee. I certainly
believe he has what it takes to make a wonderful editor someday, and I am
sad to see him leave. I strongly recommend James for any mid-level editorial
position in publishing.
Sincerely,
Edward P. Larkin
Executive Editor
