Free LinkedIn Recommendation Generator

Writing LinkedIn recommendations is awkward. You want to say something meaningful, but the words don't come easy. This tool helps you write genuine, specific recommendations without spending 30 minutes staring at a blank text box.

How to Generate LinkedIn Recommendations ✍️

Step 1

Enter Their Name and Role

Start with the basics. Who are you recommending? What's their job title or role? This helps the generator create a recommendation that sounds specific to them, not a generic template that could apply to anyone.

Step 2

Select Your Relationship

How do you know this person? Were they your colleague, your manager, someone you managed, or a client? The relationship changes the tone and perspective of the recommendation. A recommendation for your boss sounds different from one for someone on your team.

Step 3

Generate and Personalize

Hit Generate and get a solid recommendation draft. Read it, tweak it with specific details or stories you remember, and make it yours. The best recommendations have a personal touch that only you can add.

Frequently Asked Questions

You've got questions. We've got answers.

Why do LinkedIn recommendations matter?

Recommendations add social proof to a profile. They show that real people have worked with this person and are willing to vouch for them publicly. For job seekers, freelancers, and consultants, strong recommendations can be the difference between getting contacted or getting ignored.

How long should a LinkedIn recommendation be?

Aim for 3 to 5 sentences. Long enough to say something meaningful, short enough that people actually read it. Nobody reads a 500-word recommendation. Get to the point and make it count.

What makes a good LinkedIn recommendation?

Specificity. Instead of saying "John is a great team player," say what John actually did. Mention a project, a result, or a moment that stood out. Specific details make recommendations believable and memorable.

Can I use this for colleagues, managers, and direct reports?

Yes. The tool adjusts the tone based on your relationship. A recommendation for your manager focuses on their leadership. A recommendation for someone you managed highlights their growth and contributions.

Should I ask the person what to include?

You can. Some people have specific skills or achievements they want highlighted, especially if they're job hunting. Asking shows you care about making the recommendation useful for them.

What if I don't remember specific details about working with them?

Use the generated recommendation as a starting point and add whatever you do remember. Even small details like "during our product launch" or "when we were scaling the team" make it feel more real.

Will this recommendation sound authentic?

The tool gives you a strong foundation. To make it truly authentic, add one personal detail or observation that only you would know. That's what separates a good recommendation from a generic one.
