I have a former supervisor that offered to write me a letter of recommendation for a job I applied to. My final round interview is this week, and I thought having the letter sent via email the day after my interview would help boost my chances.
However, the supervisor wants me to write it. Anyone have any tips? Or boilerplate language I can use as starting point?
If you have had to do something similar, and would be willing, could you send me a redacted draft of it? Thanks!

Re: Employer letter of recommendation
Basically LoR's need to have three parts:
1) how they know you.
2) what you did for them
3) the recommendation

Re: Employer letter of recommendation
I get the first two parts. I guess I'm looking for some broiler plate language on the third part. For the attorney I did litigation work for, which was mostly research memos, some with legal analysis too, and a little motions practice drafting.Wechsler wrote:Basically LoR's need to have three parts:
