To Sales Director
Subject: Appointment: Sales Manager, Central and Eastem Europe
Dear Liz,
We recently interviewed three candidates for this position.
We have decided to appoint Barbara Szarmach.
I will briefly describe the candidate's strengths and explain the reasons for our decision.
Strong Sales Ability:
Barbara has consistently delivered outstanding sales results during her tenure as a sales
representative at Fast-Track. Her performance has been the best among her team for the past
five years. This demonstrates her exceptional sales ability and her capacity to achieve results.
As the Sales Manager, Barbara will be responsible for developing sales, achieving targets,
and increasing customer numbers. Her proven track record in sales will be invaluable in
driving the subsidiary's revenue growth and improving sales performance.
Energetic and Confident:
Throughout the interview process, Barbara displayed an energetic and confident demeanor.
Her strong personality and natural leadership qualities stood out. These traits will be essential
in managing the sales team effectively, motivating them, and creating a dynamic and
productive work environment. Barbara's energy and confidence will inspire the team to
perform at their best and overcome the challenges they have been facing. Her outgoing nature
will also facilitate building strong relationships with clients and stakeholders.
Excellent Polish and Russian Language Skills:
Barbara possesses excellent language skills in both Polish and Russian. This linguistic ability
will be a significant asset in managing sales operations in Central and Eastern Europe. It will
enable her to effectively communicate with clients, understand their needs, and build strong
rapport. Additionally, Barbara has good command of English, which will be beneficial for
collaborating with the global teams at Fast-Track.
Considering these strengths, we believe that Barbara Szarmach is the ideal candidate for the
Sales Manager position. Her sales ability, energetic personality, and linguistic skills align
perfectly with the job description and the challenges faced by our subsidiary. However, it is
worth noting that during the interview, Barbara displayed a strong personality and occasional
aggressiveness. While this may raise concerns about her ability to be a team player, we
believe that with proper guidance and support, she can channel her strong personality in a
positive and collaborative manner.
We are confident that Barbara will make a significant impact on the sales performance of the
Warsaw subsidiary and contribute to its growth. We recommend her appointment as the Sales
Manager for Central and Eastern Europe.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Best regards,
Valery Semiletova
