A Letter of Recommendation is a crucial document used in professional and academic contexts to provide third-party validation of an individual's qualifications, character, and capabilities. In Malta, while maintaining its informal nature, the letter must adhere to EU GDPR requirements and local data protection laws, particularly regarding personal data handling and subject consent. The document typically includes the recommender's professional credentials, their relationship with the candidate, specific examples of the candidate's achievements, and a clear endorsement statement. Letters of Recommendation are commonly required for job applications, academic admissions, scholarships, and professional certifications, serving as a valuable tool for decision-makers in evaluating candidates.
