The document outlines a 4-step process for providing LinkedIn recommendations that benefit both the recommender and recommend-ee. The steps include: 1) defining the relationship between parties; 2) identifying the role of the person being endorsed; 3) providing details like first year hired and attributes; and 4) pasting a spell-checked recommendation. The recommendation should highlight the recommend-ee's qualifications and value without self-promotion.
