Can my referee write me a recommendation letter and use his scanned signature (electronic signature) and put it in word or PDF file? will it be accepted?

After you submit the application, you have the deadline by which the LORs need to be submitted. You should mostly try and spare a months’ time for the person to write the LOR for you because it’s difficult to spare time out of a hectic schedule and write something about someone. Allow them ample time to pen down their thoughts of you in order to receive a more productive and creative content. Always make sure to provide some tips to them beforehand because t might not be sure of the format and the layout. I am now going to share certain tips with you guys so that you can make your LOR an effective one because this certainly holds a hell lot of importance when it comes to selection of candidates. The strongest letters include at least 3 paragraphs. Introduction – This includes the length and the capacity you have known the student 2nd Paragraph – Outline the details of your assessment of the student’s abilities Conclusion – Summarize the strength of your recommendation Letter length is often interpreted as a measure of the strength of your recommendation – if your recommendation is strong, the letter should go on to a second page; letters that are 1 page or less are often considered “red flags” by some program directors. Include accurate descriptions and specific examples of the student’s abilities – avoid either exaggeration or overly vague/generic descriptors. When possible, include statistics. In describing any weaknesses, consider whether you can frame them positively. (e.g, “demonstrated improvement in documentation…” rather than “demonstrated poor documentation”). Include any position titles, including faculty appointments, in your signature. “Real” signatures are preferred over digital signatures. Helping them with these advanced tips could do wonders for your LOR. I wish you all the best for a better career.
