the chairman of my department has asked me to bring the draft of the letter i want him to give me as referncwe letter for job?
can any one help me
its urgent
it really depends on the type of job your applying for... reference letters can vary widely... there's no specific format... you can be really creative and make the ref. letter a warm complement to your resume' which is typically the same for a majority of the candidates.
In any case, since you said its urgent, I'm providing a template for something I used in my last job switch... but this may not apply to you, so sift through it and see if there's something you can re-use.
Ciao.

To Whom It May Concern
Mr. [your name] has been a regular student at Y university since [date] to [date]. I have known him as a student of the department I chair as well as a Professor [if this is true].
[insert tareefein here]
I have found X to be a bright and receptive student who has the ability to understand, apply and master new concepts with ease
He takes personal initiative in solving problems
He is a help to his classmates
He is a responsible student who completes his work in a timely manner
He has been a pleasure to teach, has been an invaluable part of the classroom and an asset to the university
[please do a spell check]
If you might want to just get one letter and use it for all future jobs u apply to so that you dont have to go to him for a letter again n again. thats why i said 'to whom it may concern' and dint include the name of the company etc like Umar did]
good luck and feel free to post ur final version here if u want so someone can look over it
