Dear Hiring Manager,

It is my great pleasure to recommend Linda Peters who is applying for a position with your company. I have always been impressed with Linda’s enthusiasm, organizational skills, loyalty and professional demeanor while she worked for me.

Linda worked for me at both Siemens Medical Systems and Varian Medical Systems in Mountain View and Palo Alto, California as my Executive Administrative Assistant. I was the General Manager of the North American Ultrasound Business for Siemens and the Vice President of Sales Operations for Varian where Linda worked as my Executive Assistant. Linda managed all my correspondence, organized all my meetings as well as large National meetings. While at those meetings she took copious notes and insured that follow-up by all participates was completed. She filtered all of my CC’d emails, managed my travel and expenses, and also reviewed the expenses of my 15+ direct reports at both companies. She managed key customer visits, factory tours, reviewed and helped to develop PowerPoints, Excel spreadsheets, Word documents, or any correspondence.

I would not have brought Linda with me from Siemens to Varian if she had not always done an outstanding job for me. She is proactive in her thinking and kept my schedule and key commitments on time and complete. She is able to multitask effectively and is expert in handling a high-volume, high pressure work situation and workload. She worked with me for over 10 years, and is a loyal and extremely trustworthy employee. If I could have gotten her to move to Atlanta with my current job at Elekta Medical Systems I would have done so.

Again, I strongly recommend Linda Peters. You will find no one better. If you would like additional information regarding her candidacy, you may contact my office during working hours. Sincerely,

Sam Patton
