Leveraging Networking Contacts

Couldn't find a post addressing this. I'm thinking of updating my networking contacts for SA 2023 — just not sure how to go about it. 

Should I just directly ask if they can push me to a first round interview or is there a more delicate way to go about it? Curious to hear the thoughts of those who've went through this process. I'd appreciate if anyone could shed some light on this.
