Should I get my LOR from the CEO who doesn’t know my last name, or the college dean I spoke to once?

The answer is: Neither. The single biggest question we get about Letters of Recommendation is always, “Who should I ask?” Aspirants think a fancy title or a C-suite designation will automatically impress the Admissions Committee. But here is the RAW truth: A generic letter from a big name is the fastest way to kill your application. ❌
Your LOR needs to come from someone who genuinely knows you and has worked closely with you. It could be:
👉 Your immediate manager or boss who sees your daily grind.
👉 A project lead who watched you spearhead a tight deadline.
👉 A college professor or HOD who mentored you on a major research paper.
The AdCom wants specific examples of your leadership, your problem-solving abilities, and your flaws. They want data points, not generic praise. If your recommender can’t talk about a specific time you stepped up, their title means absolutely nothing.
Choose depth of relationship over status of title every single time.
