To Whom It May Concern:
I would like to recommend Julia Gallagher as a candidate for a position with your organization. In her internship
position with igourmet.com, as well as subsequent seasonal employment as a customer service sales specialist, Julia
has done an excellent job and has been an incredible asset to our organization. Julia started with our internship
program in the spring of 2009 and was asked to come back to our sales team for the Holiday 2009 season. She has
excellent written and verbal communication skills, is extremely organized, can work independently and is able to
follow through to ensure that the job gets done.
During her employ at igourmet.com, Julia was responsible for working in both the marketing and sales departments.
She processed customer orders, prepared marketing materials for tradeshows and events, and operated our website
“live chat” function offering special sales and promotions to our customers. She was also responsible for many of my
departments’ administrative and clerical functions as well as taking the lead in providing content for our company’s
social networking platforms.
She is an extremely quick learner jumping in wherever needed to maintain efficient department
operations. Her enthusiasm and willingness to go above and beyond what was expected is a trait
that is welcomed by me and makes a very desirable characteristic when looking for a potential
new hire employee.
Julia has an excellent rapport with our customers, vendors, suppliers, and staff and can effectively communicate with
professionals in any organization. She would be an asset to any employer and I highly recommend her for any
endeavor she chooses to pursue.
Sincerest Regards,
Lisa Griffiths - Director of Sales & Marketing
