Who do I ask for a reference after a layoff? - what worked for you?

I worry a reference will only confirm dates of employment. HR only confirms titles and dates. Who did you use?

A client reference worked well for me. It shows you deliver outside the company too.

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