I also need a sample of the referrence letter kindly send to olayideolumeko @ gmail.com Thanks
Preparing a reference letter is very simple. What I did was to study the Document Checklist and the specific requirements for reference letter in it;
Letters must be:
• written on company letterhead,
• signed by the responsible officer/supervisor,
• show the company's full address, telephone and fax numbers, e-mail and website addresses,
• stamped with the company's official seal (if applicable).
Letters must include all of the following information:
• the specific period of your employment with the company,
• the positions you have held during the period of employment and the time you spent in each position,
• your main responsibilities and duties in each position,
• your total annual salary plus benefits in each position, and
• the number of hours worked per week in each position.
Give this portion above to your HR/supervisor who will be issuing the reference for you that these are the specific details you need in the letter. I did this with my current employer and past 3 employers. I got it from them, no issues at all. Just ask very nicely
Then I looked at the duties stated on the NOC list for my NOC 1112,
Investment analysts perform some or all of the following duties:
Collect financial and investment information about companies, stocks, bonds and other investments using daily stock and bond reports, economic forecasts, trading volumes, financial periodicals, securities manuals, company financial statements and other financial reports and publications
Examine and analyze financial and investment information collected, including profiles of companies, stock and bond prices, yields and future trends and other investment information
Provide investment advice and recommendations to clients, senior company officials, pension fund managers, securities agents and associates
Prepare company, industry and economic outlooks, analytical reports, briefing notes and correspondence.
I simply took these duties and changed the way they were written to avoid copy and paste (CIO hates copy and paste references) but convey the same meaning then added 3 more of the specific stuff I do at the bottom and that was it. References letters were ready.
All the best with your application.
