Getting references after a company closes

    My manager was laid off too and I am unsure who to use as a reference. There are 11 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I have one former client who liked my work. How do you ask politely?

    Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

    Use a professional network to find a former manager. Many will still write a note.
