How to address letter of rec?
This might be a very dumb question, but how are recommenders supposed to address letters? The letter in question comes from an employer. I don't have a fixed set of judges because I want to apply generally and as positions open up.

Re: How to address letter of rec?
I had an externship supervisor write me a clerkship rec, and they just addressed it To Whom It May Concern. Mail merge, as the previous reply suggested, is probably better to make it more personalized, but I wouldn't say strictly necessary. Faculty recommenders have (1) assistants (2) who know how to process clerkship rec letters, neither of which are always true for an employer recommender.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Wed Sep 16, 2020 2:46 pmThis might be a very dumb question, but how are recommenders supposed to address letters?
