ASKING FOR REFERENCES
Dear Sir’
My father once introduced me to you and talked highly of you as one of his friends before he died. I am applying for a job in the State Bank and I beg your permission to give your name as one of the references. I hope you will oblige me by speaking in favour of me. The post in question is not a highly paid one’ but it offers excellent prospects. I would like to thank you for this trouble.
Yours sincerely’
Shahid Naseem.
