Who do I ask for a reference after a layoff? - first time posting

    The company closed and I am not sure how to reach former colleagues. Any experience at all would help. HR only confirms titles and dates. How do you ask politely?

    I kept a note of my results so my references could be specific. They appreciated it.

    Ask former colleagues and supervisors in a short message and give them a summary of the job you are applying for.
