Who do I ask for a reference after a layoff? (update)

    The company closed and I am not sure how to reach former colleagues. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. HR only confirms titles and dates. How do you ask politely?

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