推荐信写作技巧 到底怎么写才能更出彩？

怎么问人要推荐信?

既然人选已经定好，那么接下来就是如何有技巧的请求对方帮你做推荐了，既要让对方知道这件事对你有多重要，又要不让对方反感，能够高高兴兴地帮你完成好推荐，这也需要你动动脑筋。

(1)突出对方的价值

请求别人帮助，首先要想想别人为什么要帮你，怎么能让人心情愉快的帮你。那么，问别人要推荐信，与其红果果的说：求你帮帮我，而让对方在心里翻一个大大的白眼，就不如说：你是能帮助我的最好的人选/唯一的人选，你看你这也好，那也优秀，你最懂我，你要是不帮我的话我就死定了。这样一来，对方会觉得自己既然都是你的救世主了，也就不好再推脱了。

即言，直白的告诉对方，你有多么重视TA对你的评价，你有多尊敬对方的专业度，对方的评价对你而言有多么的不可替代。你是如此的信任对方，所以需要TA的帮助。相信别人不会随便拒绝你的。其实，说到这里你可能会惊奇的发现，学校所看重的学生的情商，以及沟通技巧，从你决定要申请的那一刻起，就已经在考核你了，小到如何索要推荐信这一环节，在你决定申请之时，你就已经被套路了。

(2)提供推荐信模板

记得要给对方指导，即便对方愿意帮你执笔写推荐信，告诉你“放心，这都包在我身上啦”，你也要告诉对方推荐信的内容，你希望他为你突出写哪些方面，给对方一个模板、或者大纲来参考。

记住，申请永远是你自己的事情，不是别人的事，因此，不要给推荐人找事。对方也不会承诺你一定帮你把事情做好，因此，为避免对方不小心给你搞砸了，还是记得给予TA最多的指导吧。

(3)不要指手画脚

为对方提供了模板，或者已经明确告知你希望对方如何帮助你之后，就不要对对方的推荐内容指手画脚了。当然，在你选定这位推荐人，且对方答应了为你推荐的时候，你就应该清楚对方是否真心愿意帮你，如果是的，那么你也应该对对方有充分的信任。让对方在为你推荐的过程中，也感到舒适。而不是因为你后续的一再干扰和指手画脚，打破了你们之间的信任，让对方失去为你做推荐的兴趣。

如果你要找老外做你的推荐人，让我们看看如何与对方沟通，能够最好的体现出以上三点规则：

1、突出对方的价值：

Dear John,

Hello, I hope you are well. I am writing to ask a huge favor — I'm applying for a senior marketing position with Merck and I was hoping you'd consider writing a letter of recommendation on my behalf. I always appreciated your perspective and judgment while working together. You have so much credibility within the product development space that I thought you'd be a perfect person to act as a reference.

2、给对方模板

I have included a list of bullet points along with a draft letter you might consider using as a template. I'd like to make the process as easy as possible on you and I know it's hard to recall details about the many different projects we worked on together in 2007 and 2008.

3、别指手画脚

If for any reason you don't feel comfortable writing a letter on my behalf, I completely understand. If you are willing to do so, however, please feel free to take the attached sample letter and use it as a template however you see fit. I have tried to address my core strengths as a strategic thinker and team player and I have highlighted several marketing campaigns I'm particularly proud of. To the extent that you'd like to make any changes or modifications to the letter, please go ahead and do so. I trust that you'll include only those topics you feel comfortable commenting upon.

Further, I would welcome the opportunity to see a copy of the letter, but I of course understand your position if you'd like to keep it confidential.

(4)最后，不要忘记对他人的帮助表达感谢。

5 推荐信应该怎么写

最为重要的一点：确实可信的例子不能少，不要堆砌形容词。

最重要的一点就是要有确实可信的例证。也就是说，一封好的推荐信不仅要出自一位在某一方面了解你的人士之手，而且信中对你的评价必须要有具体的例子来佐证，这样才有说服力。

我们申请人的好多推荐信都有这方面的毛病，在信的字里行间堆砌着许多赞美褒奖的词汇，如“intelligent”，“ambitious”，“personable”，“natural born leader”等等，但却不举一件事例对这些夸赞加以说明。这样的推荐信不仅苍白无力，不能增加评审委员会对你的了解，而且还有可能让读信的人产生疑问：为什么这些与你亲近的人却不能说出你的任何一件具体成就?这封信的真实可靠性就要大打折扣了。这种信看起来像是编造的，或者是推荐人敷衍搪塞的作品。实际上，如果没有具体生动的事例，评审委员会又怎能将你从成百上千，甚至成千上万个申请者中区分开来呢?因此，只要不罗嗦，不讲废话，多举一些实例是有益无害的，长度一到两页均可。

推荐信的结构：

第一段：

· 推荐人与申请人的关系。

· 推荐人是在什么环境下认识申请人，以及相识多久。

· 申请人希望申请的哪一个学期和科系。

第二段：

· 推荐人对申请人资格评估。

· 推荐人初识申请人时，对他有何特别的印象。

· 举例证实推荐人对于申请人的评估结果。

第三段：

· 对于申请人个人特质的评估。如：沟通能力、成熟度、抱负、领导能力、团队工作能力，以及正直等)，或是有哪些需要改进的地方。

让我们来看一篇失败的推荐信的范例：

Dear Sir:

It is my pleasure to recommend Mr. Fu-ping Wang for his application to graduate studies in your school.

Mr. Wang has been my research assistant of the National Science Council's project "The United States and the United Nations' Financial Crisis: The Role of U.S. Congress" since September 1997. His major responsibilities include information collecting, analyzing and translating. He is an enthusiastic and progressive young man with extremely high potentiality. Mr. Wang is not only quick at learning and good at solving difficult problems, but also with a logical mind that enables him to effectively analyze difficulties. All the work handed to him was completed satisfactorily. Actually, he is so reliable that I assign him with heavy responsibilities. With his help, I have been able to spend more time in writing the research paper. I really consider myself very fortunate to have such a capable assistant.

I am certain his diligence, coupled with a good competence and pleasant personality, will assure him of academic achievements in his future academic pursuits. I strongly recommend his admission without any reservation.

Sincerely yours,

Chung Wei-kuo

Research Fellow and Professor

----------------分析，失败的原因：

大家能看出这篇推荐信错误在哪里吗?

失败1 堆砌形容词，没有具体事件的举例。让人感觉申请者的优秀度也没有很强。

失败2 没有反应出推荐人为何觉得申请者适合申请这个项目，有哪些未来发展的潜能。
