2 recommenders from same company allowed?

[heman]

Hello,

Are there any folks in the community who put in recommendation letters from 2 people in the same company and got successfully endorsed?

Thanks

Yes, I’ve read about such cases recently.

I was endorsed for Talent with 2 recommenders from the same company

@yeshellohi

My recommendation letters were as follows:

1. Current manager (Senior Eng Manager) from FAANG, talking about achievements in my team and my work outside of normal duties (mentorship and recruitment at FAANG).
2. Previous manager from same company (Staff Software Engineer), talking about my achievements in my my work outside of normal duties (mentorship and recruitment at FAANG).
3. Founder of the Startup I worked for before moving to UK, talking about my work, and my achievements outside of work.

Thank you @yeshellohi

The issue with following this type of example is that another assessor may find it weak. Some assessors have commented on using same from the same organisation. If you can avoid it, do so.

If you’re using someone you’ve worked with, best to augment with external experts. Could be one person you’ve worked with in the same organisation and two external experts who know your work well.
