To whom it may concern: It is with great confidence that I recommend Mr. André Faubert for employment.

In fulfilling his duties as Web designer and technical assistant at the Canadian International Development Agency, Mr. Faubert worked under my supervision. His duties included assistance in the day-to-day management of CIDA’s Internet site, graphic design, formatting of Web pages using Lotus Notes databases as well as html programming, java script programming, image mapping, creation of presentations, testing of new interactive products, and network installations of internet connections for Web-enabled kiosks.

Over the course of the two-and-a-half years of his employment with us, Mr. Faubert demonstrated enthusiasm, dedication, teamwork skills, and the ability to work under tight deadlines. His extensive technical knowledge made him a very valuable resource on our team. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at 819-***-**** Yours sincerely,

Patricia Dupuis Webmaster Creative Services, Communications Branch Canadian International Development Agency 200 Promenade du Portage Hull, Quebec K1A 0G4

Department of National Defence

February 20, 1998

To whom it may concern:

For a period of approximately four months (September – December, 1997), I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Andre Faubert in the office of Chief, Public Affairs (CPA) at the Department of National Defence

(DND) in Ottawa. It was during this period where he worked as the Web Administrator, responsible for the programming, posting and maintenance of Public Affairs material prepared for D-NET, the official World Wide Web site of DND.

Specifically, he was required to prepare documents and image files for the Internet in Various formats (.html, .pdf, .gif, .jpg, etc.) to support the release of information from the Public Affairs staff. This also required him to maintain a rather large and complex directory structure, maintain key navigational elements on the site and interact with technical staff on server management and programming issues. Lastly, he provided invaluable advice and responded to staff requests for information on a daily basis.

On a personal note, I very much enjoyed working with André. The enthusiasm and sense of responsibility he had for his work was evident every day, making my job that much easier. Every supervisor – and Web site developer – should be so lucky! I have no doubt that he would be an asset to any office.

If I can offer any further information, please be in touch. Sincerely, Beverly Pasian Interactive Media Manager
