Dear Recipient Name,
Thank you for writing a letter of recommendation for me. As you know, I applied for a position as (Job Designation, e.g., system analyst) with (Company/Institute name). Last week, they interviewed me for the position but unfortunately, I did not get the job. (Describe in your own words). Another candidate, who has more work experience than me, was given the job.
Of course, I am a bit disappointed but I haven’t let this experience dishearten me. I have applied for two new jobs and have been contacted by the respective companies who are impressed with my credentials. (Describe all about the situation).
As I continue my search for a good job, I am grateful to know that I have your support. (Cordially describe your greetings). I hope that I can contact you in the future if I need a recommendation letter for another position.
Sincerely,
Your name…
