That I haven't spoken to two of them since June of last year. They are important bosses that I got references for when I left the landfill. But me being anti-social....i never keep up with anyone.

Anywho, my question, if y'all be so kind to help me, is should I put their personal numbers down or their place of work down for their phone number? Also I was gonna contact them on Easter and tell them happy Easter. Just to remind them that I exist lol any other ways I should go about of getting back in contact with them without sounding needy?

You can put them down, but you should probably also contact them. And, in general, I've had this problem in the past including losing touch with a boss who specifically cautioned me against not keeping contact with people. A year is nothing so you should be pretty fine.

And, in general, you should use whatever number they ask you to use.

A guy I hadn't even spoken to for years called to ask if I would be his reference. I said yes. I mean, I had known him for years before, too.

Just professionally ask if they can be your reference

Use personal phone. The company might have rules regarding references

If he's going to ask them if he can use them as references, he could also ask about which number, too. Although, sometimes, they have spots for both work and personal numbers...

Well I contacted them in June and asked to use them if I could use them as references. But I don't know if I should contact them for every application I put in. But I get what you mean. Especially if I am updating them, be good to know if they still got my back lol
