I was supposed to apply to B-school last year (had everything just about ready except for the GMAT.) I decided to take a job offer I had received literally a day before I was supposed to take the GMAT. I'm now ready to apply for 2009 and have a question about which LOR I should use. I had my former supervisor write a very good letter for me, which I still have. She told me to let her know if I want to use it down the road and its a very well written letter. However, I haven't kept in touch since I left (last October) and don't know if I should use it or get two new ones from my new employer. I used to work for a top 5 corporate law firm and now work for one of the top 3 investment banks. I'm sure I can get just as good, if not better letters from here, but I'm wondering if it would be good to have one from my former employer and one from my new employer? I had a good relationship with my previous employer and I think showing good referrals for two different large firms would be good.
Also, I am going to ask for a letter from someone who worked at my previous employer with whom I work with now. Would it be good to have him discuss our relationship at both firms?
Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
