Additional notes

Reading employment dates

A role’s start and end dates describe that experience, while a profile refresh time describes a separate update. Keep date-only entries as dates. If a refresh time has no timezone, confirm it before comparing exact times.

For background on this data category, see Clay’s Enrich Person action, which describes basic professional information and work experience. Compare the returned profile link and employer details when people have similar names.
