recommendation letter for an employee

To whom it may concern, I am highly elated to recommend Prerana Bajracharya as one of the candidates for the [----] University. I am a Senior Engineering Manager of Cedar Gate Technologies and have been working here for about 9 years. She has worked as my subordinate for about 3 years. As her manager, I’ve been extremely impressed with Prerana’s skills as a Software Engineer, commitment to her responsibilities, and team spirit. I have no doubt she will bring the same enthusiasm, rigor, and dedication as one of the students of the University. Along with her enthusiasm, she shows qualities of leadership in her as she was assigned to train the new hires. Her juniors have given quite impressive feedback regarding her dependability and adept instructions. Moreover, I have also got good feedback from senior members as well. She has been praised for her proficient technical skills and punctuality. She also participates in pitching her ideas. She has great team spirit and is open to others’ views as well. Apart from office work, she has also shown proactive participation in sports competitions and annual programs. Initially, when she first joined, she seemed a little shy. However, there was no doubt about her technical skills. She was independently able to handle tasks of a client only 1-2 months after she joined as a Trainee. Although she was good at programming, she did take time to speak up. After working throughout her time in the company, she has improved a lot. She has built up her confidence, and can express herself eloquently. Now, she has been promoted to Associate Project Manager, which solely illustrates her improvement. She is now involved in conducting meetings, dealing with inter-team tasks, communicating with clients and managing the team. The most impressive quality I have observed was that she is self-driven and diligent. She strives to improve herself. She always looks forward to challenging tasks and works through it independently. Furthermore, she constantly works to keep up with new technologies. Also, she never hesitates to help other teams like Quality Assurance Team, Business Analyst Team, Data Analyst Team. So, she has maintained a good relationship with everyone. There was a time when a bug was detected late at night in the production version which had to be fixed immediately. She maintained her composure and coordinated well along with the team and completed the task precisely. Finally, she has proven to be an indispensable employee of the company. Technically, she has shown great adeptness in programming and processing big data. So, I strongly recommend her admission to your esteemed university and look forward to seeing her emerging as a more resourceful person as higher education opportunities will add a new dimension to her career. Thank you,
