Subject: Recommendation Letter for Joyce Rivas

Joyce Rivas worked for the Florida Masonry Apprentice and Educational Foundation for five years and the Masonry Association of Florida for two years. Joyce provided exemplary service for both organizations.

As an outstanding member of the Masonry Education Foundation team, Joyce developed many innovative and well thought out recruitment programs to sign up contractors to support the masonry apprentice education programs.

Joyce is applying for a grant writer position for WorkNet Pinellas. This is a big position to fill, requiring the skills to search out grants and to write proposals to secure those grants.

Joyce is highly skilled in both of these areas. She has proven to be a tenacious researcher, and is well versed in today’s technology. Her attention to detail and to deadlines makes her a committed team member. As a lead writer for our Foundation communications, others would turn to Joyce for her proofreading skills. She is a capable writer and excels in the technical arena.

Most importantly, Joyce exhibited a work ethic second to none. She is a dedicated professional who takes great pride in her work and considers it a reflection of herself. She will put in the hours required to meet a deadline. She can manage projects to fruition without creating havoc along the way. She works well with others.

Joyce excels in relationship management. She will make the necessary contacts to seek out grants and to maintain working relationships with the appropriate people.

I sincerely believe this position is a good fit for Joyce and I highly recommend her for this job.
