Here are some fabulous examples from my own profile that give context around how we worked together by mentioning the organisation name, event, context, timing, and outcome.ĭon't forget that when you give a recommendation it shows up on your profile in addition to theirs, so take the time to ensure it serves them and fits your brand. Remember the Recommendation shows up on both the giver and receiver's profiles by default, so the words are important to both parties.

To allow the reader of the recommendation to connect with the person you are writing about, capture what they did and why it matters.

I would recommend him without hesitation.” Bob's honest, personable approach and fantastic work ethic separates him from his competitors. This is a positive but vague example but lacks value and what set him apart. Let's start with some average examples that can be improved.
