Hello everyone,

I just wanted to know those who had previously worked with Accenture India and applied for PR.

Did Accenture HR easily gives a reference letter in the format mentioned by CIC.

If they do not provide all the details what you guys have done to tackle this situation.

Before I request them a reference letter I want to be sure that how exactly we should approach them .

Your kind response would be a great help for me.

Unsure if they do it for past employees, but they have done it for my wife (current employee). If they do not provide you with a letter you can always ask a former colleague/manager to write a letter of reference in the accepted format, for you.

There is a special request option on Accenture portal, did you guys use that to get a reference letter?

Hello,

I had written to the Exit team of Accenture and they had replied as below:

Kindly write to INDIA.AEE.ESL@accenture.com for the reference Letter as we are not the concerned Team for the same. In the mail, please include your complete address (Indian Address Only) & specify the reason for requesting the letter.

I am an ex-employee of Accenture (2007-2011) and they provided me with all the details in the company's format. I think it's fine as they cover all the details and that is important.

They post the Reference Letter to us. Please write to the above email id requesting for a reference letter and state the purpose as Canada Immigration. They will reply with the details they need from you and the procedure.

Hope this helps

I sent an email to India.AEE.ESL@accenture.com and got the letter in a few days. Be very specific about what information you need on the letter and also send them the bullet points of job responsibilities. They will probably also ask who your line manager was to confirm the above.

Ask them to stamp the letter too.

How much time it took for you to get the letter once it was approved by your manager and HR?
for me the status is still pending although both have approved it.

After supervisor and HR approved, it took 2 working days for the final approval to reflect in AST and also a comment would be updated mentioning that the letter is dispatched. After the final approval, you should receive the letter in your facility mailroom in 2 working days.

Hi,
What was the format of reference letter ? Did you provide them the List of responsibilities or they gave it as per their own records, as the job responsibilities points are very important.
Pls advise.
Thanks

Could you please share where can I get the format by CIC.i’m in the same boat, my employeer in India is not willing to give a letter mentioning the number of hours.

So if you could please share the format, I can get it signed from an employee.
