To whom it may concern
I am writing to you with regard to Mr. Topal, who has requested that I write a letter of recommendation on his behalf. I would like to recommend Mr. Topal as a candidate for a position in your institution for many reasons.
Firstly, Mr. Topal had been working for "Greatking computer" (a B2B company) almost three years (2003-2006). During that period, I had the great pleasure of seeing him blossom from a college student at the beginning of the business, into a fully functioning director and program Co-ordinator in his final three years with the company. That was the last position he held before moving onto London for carrying on with his studies in November 2005.
His responsibilities have included writing and editing articles and website content, hiring, training, and supervising store service personnel and scheduling appointments as well as representing the company in contract negotiations.
Mr. Topal is a hard-working self-starter who invariably understands exactly what a business is all about from the outset, and how to get it done quickly and effectively. During his three years in the Marketing Co-Ordinator position, I cannot remember an instance in which he missed a major deadline. He often brought projects in below budget, and a few were even completed ahead of schedule.
Mr. Topal is a resourceful, creative, and solution-oriented person who was frequently able to come up with new and innovative approaches to his assigned projects. He functioned well as a team leader and director when required, and he also worked effectively as a team member.
On the interpersonal side, Mr. Topal has superior written and especially verbal communication skills. I can proudly say he gets along extremely well with staff under his supervision as well as colleagues. He is highly respected, as both a person and a professional, by colleagues, employees, suppliers, and customers alike.
Three years ago, when Mr. Topal announced his resignation to do his bachelor in the UK, we were saddened to see him leave, although we wished him the greatest success in his new undertaking. Even now, years after his departure, I can state that his presence, both as a person and as an exemplary employee, is still missed here.
In closing, based on my experience working with him, I can highly recommend Mr. Topal as a member in your institution. Please let me know if I can provide you with any further information.

This part could be made much more interesting if you add one more sentence to the end -- a sentence that will distinguish this essay from others like it. Or, you can list the main points:
