Who do I ask for a reference after a layoff?

    My manager was laid off too and I am unsure who to use as a reference. I worked as an operations analyst before this. HR only confirms titles and dates. How do you ask politely?

    Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It made the follow-up calls so much easier.
