I would rate myself as the #1 employee on the entire team and how the program would fail without my expert knowledge, etc. Lol. | |

I wouldn't expect a letter of reference to know any specifics about the open position and how this candidate would fit. | |

| Jan 1, 2016 at 10:16 | comment | added | The Wandering Dev Manager | @Jack - To quote the OP - "I'm looking for generalized advice", this is a bad fit. Also there are a number of questions asked, making it too broad. If the OP can distill the core question out, you'd get a much better response than one answer (plus 1 deleted). To me going through the template comment by comment isn't right for an answer here, too many questions and too specific to the OP's situation. The knub seems to be around "Is saying I should be promoted a complete faux paus, even though the director told me I would be and then asked me to write this letter", this is doable | |
