 1- Use of company letterhead

An experience letter is considered as an official document that a candidate adds to their work portfolio. Therefore, always write the letter on company letterhead when it is convenient. If your company doesn’t have letterhead then professionally add your contact details so the employer can contact you for confirmation.

2- Mention date of issuance

Write the date on the upper right-hand side. You need to write the full date that includes day, month, and year. The format is your own choice

Example: January 18, 2021, or 01/18/2021

3- Write a salutation

Begin the letter with a professional salutation like Dear or if you know who is going to read the letter then salute them as Mr./Ms. or you can also honor them with their name.

4- Add the full name of the employee

Write the full name of the employee. This will help the employer to lessen the confusion with the name and they can easily match the letter with the other official documents.

Example: Richard Roll instead of Richard or Roll.

5- Mention title or designation of the employee

Mention the current title of the employee in your company. If he or she received a promotion then mention it clearly in the body with the reason for the promotion.

Example: During his period with us, we promoted Richard to sales supervisor from a sales associate. His outstanding performance and skills raised us to take this decision.

6- Include your organization’s name

Mention the full name of your organization. If your organization is working under any vast company then also mention that name. It also helps the employer to assess authenticity.

Example: Sunway pharmaceuticals, Sunway limited.

7- Mention time duration the employee spent with you

Include the date employee started to work at your company and mention the date when the employee left your company. If an employee is still working in your company then mention till the present and if the employee will leave in near future and you know the exact date then mention the date.

Example: Richard’s employment in our company started on June 1, 2018, and will end on March 30, 2021.

8- Describe the employee

Try to give a brief description of the employee including his specific skills, knowledge, and experience that can be valuable and crucial for the job they are applying for. The best you can do is get a description of the job they are applying for and mention the skills and experience needed for that job. Your description should validate the employee has the best experience and skills the employer is looking for.

Example: Richard’s responsibilities included coaching his team on their sales process, motivating and tracking the performance of his team.

9- Write a positive comment on the employee’s future endeavors.

Include a statement that shows the employee is leaving your company by their own choice and that you wish them the best intentions for their future. This gives an image to the employer that the employee is leaving your organization in good standing.

Example: Richard’s decision to leave our organization is his own decision for his bright future, and we wish better luck him in his future endeavors.

10- Add a signature line

Add a signature line at the end that has a professional closing phrase, your signature, printed name, and designation with the company’s seal.
