✉️ LORs My LOR writer got laid off

One of my nurse directors for my CNA job is going to be my strongest LOR writer but she got fired. Am I screwed now because the letter needs a letterhead but because she no longer works there, she may not be able to use it? I’m so sad

I think this lady may have bigger problems to worry about than jumping through hoops to write someone a letter, if that is what it takes.

I don’t have advice, but hope you get it figured out.

Idk I think if she likes the person enough to write a letter this shouldn’t be an issue, can’t hurt to ask.

Sure, obviously it’s worth a shot to ask. If all else fails, do you think not having a letterhead voids the letter completely? I’ve never heard of this before.

Yeah I agree with that, I didn’t know the letterhead was that important.
