Yes, you can get letters of recommendation from your current or past employers for your study abroad application. Professional recommendation letters are especially valuable if you have significant work experience, as they highlight your skills and achievements in a workplace setting.

Most master's programs also prefer at least one academic reference in addition to professional ones. Ensure that your employer's letter is on official letterhead and tailored to your chosen program.
