Leandro Neves
It’s a great pleasure to write this recommendation letter for Mrs. Amanda Soares. I have had the pleasure of working with her over the past year and I can say, for sure, she will be a very positive addition to your institution. During the nine months we had her company, we’ve witnessed a responsible and motivated work colleague, engaged on searching knowledge and improving her activities. She has established a good relationship with co-workers, captivating everyone with her kindness and talent. Mrs. Soares joined the company on September 2015, just after her graduation with honors at the Federal University of Alagoas as the first designer at the University. It didn’t take long to watch her growth and talent: although she had never worked with mobile application development, she was a fast learner and on her first project on our company, Camarote Salvador, an app to a carnival event on Brazil, she showed her competence: the app was immediately approved by the client and 20 days after the release for the public, it became a featured app on Apple and Google Store. Mrs. Soares has great leadership skills, logical thinking habits and works well with teams. She can identify problems and solve them in short time. Her communication skills are impressive on the process of creation and development of projects. She has become a model of efficiency and talent, as her competency contributed considerably to our company, and I can state with confidence she’ll contribute with yours too. Although we’ll miss her work and friendship in our company, we’re happy with the new chapter of her life in another country. We know she’s talented enough to grow even more and with her enthusiasm and competency, she’ll be successful no matter where. I offer my recommendation of Mrs. Soares without reservations. I am sure she’ll do an incredible work. If you need any further information about her, please do not hesitate to contact me.
