Letter of Work Experience

A letter of work experience is a letter that is issues to someone as verification of their past work experience. These are extremely useful when applying for a new job where specific levels of experience are required. For example, if you were applying for a job at an accounting firm as a senior accountant, they may require you to have 5 years past experience as a junior accountant. So, to prove that, you would need to request a letter of work experience from your previous employer verifying that you meet those requirements. Sample letter of work experience : Margaret W. Moritz 2256 Maloy Court Kensington, KS 66951 Dear Mrs. Moritz, I am writing this letter to verify that Michael L. Bartlett has worked in the past at our accounting firm as a junior accountant. He began work with us in that position on July 14th, 1998, and continued to occupy that position until his resignation on April 5th, 2009. He worked for us for a total of just around 11 years.

The client also gave you a wonderful plug in the article, noting that your D...

How to Write a Short Quote or Bid Proposal

Are you working in a business where you need to constantly dash off a short price quote or bid for each potential customer? This practice is especially prevalent in the building and home maintenance industries, and in some sales fields where bundle deals or discounts are commonly offered to various customers. You could just dash off a few notes and numbers on a piece of paper, but that is not likely to inspire confidence, especially if substantial money is involved in the project. It's best to meet the potential customer in person and hand them a business card, take down all the information you need - measurements, job requirements, restrictions, equipment needed, products desired, and so forth - and then head back to your office to write up a professional bid package . It is increasingly common to have to generate detailed and professional looking quotes in the field for immediate delivery. Customers are increasingly expecting everyone to be able to provide instant documen...
