To whom it may concern:

It’s my pleasure to provide this letter of recommendation for Carlyn Murdock. In her position as a Technical Assistant, Carlyn was employed with Lawrence Nye Carlson Associates from December 2015 – January 2017. Carlyn did an excellent job in this position and was an asset to our Calculations Department during her tenure with the company. She has excellent communication skills, is extremely organized, can work independently, and is able to multi-task to ensure all projects are completed in a timely manner. Carlyn’s employment at LNCA ended when the position was re-organized to require a Mechanical Engineering degree to serve as an entry level design position for graduate engineers.

Carlyn would be an asset to any employer and I recommend her to any endeavor she chooses to pursue.

Sincerely,

LAWRENCE NYE CARLSON ASSOCIATES

Re: Recommendation for Carlyn Murdock

To Whom It May Concern:

It’s my absolute pleasure to recommend Carlyn. Carlyn and I worked at Lawrence Nye Carlson and Associates (LNCA) for one year together.

I thoroughly enjoyed my time working with Carlyn, and came to know her as a truly valuable asset to absolutely any team. I was impressed with her honesty, dependability, communication skills, and professional demeanor.

Her background is in technical writing but her position at LNCA was in HVAC, Title 24 and Energy Calculations. Organized and diligent, Carlyn quickly learned technology systems and software that were unfamiliar to her when she first started at the company. Please feel free to contact me should you like to discuss Carlyn’s qualifications and experience further. I’d be happy to expand on my recommendation. Sincerely,

Muey Tarvin
