letter of recommendation might speed up your hiring process. It takes more time to grill your one of references by phone or mail than it does to read your letter.

It also eliminates the risk that your reference will be unreachable, or might do a poor job because he or she was busy or having a rotten day. All it takes is one unreachable or poor reference to turn the tide against you, while only one stellar letter of recommendation might be enough to satisfy your potential employer.

But, the biggest advantage of a letter of recommendation, is that you'll already know exactly what your reference has to say about you.

A letter of recommendation might even impress and comfort a potential employer. Some employers justifiably fear involvement in lawsuits resulting from poor references. Consequently, they typically document what your references say. If you have a letter of recommendation, you've already documented for them while reducing their liability.
