Dear [Recipients Name],
Your former employee, Dennis Blane, is one of the applicants for a senior marketing position in our company, and you are one of the references he listed. Can you please give us an honest evaluation of Mr. Blane's competence to fill the aforementioned position?
Mr. Blane's education and certifications meet the requisites of the position; however, we need more information on his work behavior, his ability to work in a team, as well as his capacity to work under pressure. Your assessment is important for us, and rest assured that we will keep it with utmost confidentiality.
We are hoping to receive your letter two weeks from today since it is essential that we fill this position right away. If you wish to personally speak with me, you may call me at 485-2387.
I appreciate your assistance on this matter.
Sincerely,
