It is my pleasure to recommend Eng. Firas Al-Emam for employment with your organization. I have known Firas for over ten years during which time he worked as a senior project management consultant in the Saudi-British Defence Co-operation Program (SBDCP). I have been consistently impressed with Firas attitude and productivity during the time that he has worked in the SBDCP. Firas is both very bright and quite motivated. I am confident that he will devote himself to a position with your organization with a high degree of diligence. He is a quick learner and has shown the ability to digest large volumes of information. Mr. Al-Emam has demonstrated the ability to articulate information and ideas in both the verbal and written forms. Mr. Al-Emam is willing to take risks. He will reach out people and involve them with projects. I particularly appreciate Firas’s willingness to take initiative to help his work to serve its constituents more fully. I recommend Al-Emam without reservations. I am confident that he will establish productive relationships with your staff and constituents. Please let me know if you have need for additional information about this outstanding fellow. Sincerely,
