To whom it may concern:

 

This is a letter of recommendation for Mr. Mathew Jacobs, who worked with my engineering staff here in New Jersey as the CAD designer for a Public Safety project at a high end shopping plaza.  Mr. Jacobs was provided very rough sketches from our wireless designers for the 2+ million square foot mall.  He then used AutoCAD drawings to locate antennas, cable runs and elevation drawings for the entire system.

 

All of these documents were used to close the successful project.  Mr. Jacobs also reviewed the specifications provided by Homeland Security office to ensure that all specifications were met and exceeded.  We did not provide Mr. Jacobs much time and he not only completed his work ahead of schedule, he did it with the respect of our engineers.

 

CellGain is an integrator here in the tri-state area working with public agencies and commercial providers. We definitely would use Mr. Jacobs again since his AutoCAD skills, design/drawing ability, honesty and professionalism are exemplary.

 

 

 

Sincerely,

Subject:  Reference letter for Mathew Jacobs

 

To whom it may concern:

 

I am a consulting engineer in the In Building Wireless market.  As a consultant I interface with many talented engineers who can bring solutions to my team’s designs. 

Matthew Jacobs (Matt) has earned my respect in becoming a Masoian Associates team member.  I contracted Matt on a number of projects, and he worked with me to bring a very complex project to a close. Matt delivered CAD designs on time and with a great deal of enthusiasm. When we reached an impasse on a number of building constraints, Matt came up with talented solutions which kept the project moving.  I can’t speak highly enough about Matt and his work ethics.

 

Sincerely,

Lee Masoian
