Recommendation Writer

Draft a LinkedIn recommendation for a colleague, specific enough to be worth reading.

Free. No sign-up. Runs entirely in your browser, so nothing you type is uploaded or stored.

The recommendation
Enter a name and the work, and the draft appears here.

Read it back and ask whether it could be about anybody else. If it could, the specific paragraph is not specific enough yet.

How to use it

  1. 1Enter their name and how you know them.
  2. 2Name one specific piece of work. A named machine or project is what makes a recommendation believable.
  3. 3Say what actually happened: the fault traced, the deadline held.
  4. 4Read it back. If it could be about anyone else, make the middle paragraph more specific.
