A TACTFUL WAY TO DECLINE TO WRITE A LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION
[DATE]
Dear [RECIPIENT NAME],
I received your request for a letter of recommendation yesterday. While I am grateful that you would think of me, I hope you understand if I decline your request at this time.
Since I only worked with you for a short time, I would not be able to give you a recommendation that would give justice to your skills and talents. If I may suggest, perhaps you may ask someone whom you have worked closely with for a longer period and who knows your full capabilities.
I apologize for declining, but I wish you all the best in your endeavors.
Regards,
