A document describing personal and business qualities, professional activities and acquired skills is drawn up by the personnel department of the enterprise. Most often, a characterization from the place of work is required by students following the results of their industrial practice, as well as by employees intending to change their place of work.
Instructions
Step 1
There is no strict form for such a document. But there are several generally accepted rules, knowing which you can easily compose the desired characteristic. First you need to know that you can write it by hand or use a computer. Of course, the latter is preferable. In this case, insert standard paper into the printer and start typing, starting with the details.
Step 2
Write in the center of the sheet the title of the document - "Characteristics". Provide the last name, first name and patronymic of the employee, the position held and the name of the organization below. Next, proceed to filling out the section reserved for personal data. Here, indicate the date of birth of the employee, his education (indicating the time of study and the names of educational institutions), qualifications in accordance with regulatory documents, academic titles (if any).
Step 3
In the next part of the characteristics, describe his labor activity in this enterprise. Start by specifying the date of his employment and the position for which he was hired. Inform about changes in the type of activity within the enterprise, career growth, official duties, jobs performed, professional development, etc.
Step 4
Next, indicate his personal and business characteristics. Personal skills include sociability, the ability to build relationships in a team, benevolence, moral principles, etc. When describing business qualities, emphasis should be placed on his ability to work, a propensity for analytical, managerial or other work. Especially note his desire for professional growth through self-education, the ability to apply the knowledge and experience gained to obtain high work results. In addition, depending on the type of his activity, it is worth paying attention to such features as punctuality, commitment or creativity and initiative.
Step 5
In conclusion, give an assessment of his work in your enterprise. In relation to the accumulated experience and demonstrated knowledge, the terms “great experience”, “sufficient level of skills”, “good specialist”, etc. can be used. Be sure to justify your assessment by providing a short transcript. For example, write about the high quality of the work performed or about the lack of the required experience and unwillingness to learn.
Step 6
The head of the organization must sign the characteristic. It is also permissible to place here an additional signature of the immediate superior or personnel officer. In addition, the document must be certified with the seal of the enterprise. For characteristics compiled at the request of third-party companies, it is necessary to indicate this fact, with reflection of data about the company that requested the document.
