Does Goldman ask for past employer phone numbers?

When you filled out your HR Workways background check information, did it ask you for addresses and phone numbers of past employers? I just did it and it only asked for city. No phone number. How do they go about contacting your past employers if you don't provide a phone number? Curious because one past company I worked for is no longer in business.

I don't put phone numbers if they don't ask for them.
