Inside address
Today's date
Dear Professor Blush:
I was a student of yours last term in your Hospitality Senior Seminar class. I earned an A in your class, so
you might remember me. I will be graduating in May, and I am currently working on assembling my career portfolio.
Could you please write a letter of recommendation addressing the following skills:
- My ability to work in groups
- My ability to do a presentation
- My ability to perform academically
- My ability to do electronic spreadsheets
- My ability to communicate with others
- My ability to meet guest needs
- My ability to supervise others
- Management skills
- Creativity
- People skills
It would be helpful if you could indicate how long you have known me and on what occasions you have worked with me.
I would also appreciate if you could address the letter to "Dear Future Employer."
I would appreciate receiving this letter within the next two weeks. Please call or e-mail me and let me know when it
would be convenient for me to pick up the letter. It would be helpful if I could pick up an unfolded letter.
Thank you very much for your consideration and all your help. Please feel free to call me if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
 
Abigail Alexander
