As you know, I’ve been in the process of applying for various employment opportunities over the past weeks. Recently, I received a very desirable offer to fill a position at an energetic and exciting company. Although both a resume exhibiting experiences and credentials suited to the job and a successful interview certainly contributed to my success, I feel that your willingness to speak as a professional reference on my behalf played a central role in the company’s decision to offer me the position.

I am writing to express my gratitude for your time and consideration in support of my endeavors. Your perspective and encouragement mean a great deal to me. Thank you for all that you’ve done.

Thank you for taking the time to write me a letter of recommendation. I could not have asked for nicer comments. Your letter paved the way for numerous interviews and a job offer from Doe Corporation, where I wanted most to work. The time you took to write that letter will have a significant impact on my life for years to come. I hope I can reciprocate the favor.

I want to express my deepest gratitude to you for the recommendation you made on my behalf. You went the extra mile to assist me, and I have gained a significant benefit because of you. I know that your recommendation played a significant role in helping me obtain the opportunity I was seeking.

Without your recommendation, I do not feel that my application would have made the same impact. You are a pillar in the community and highly respected by everyone.

Thank you once again for your powerful, well-thought-out recommendation. It means a lot that you would take time out of your busy schedule to help me succeed. If I can be of any service to you in the future, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
