Check Job Change

Give it a LinkedIn profile URL, find out whether that person has recently changed jobs.

What it does

• Checks one LinkedIn profile for a recent job change. A bare username works in place of the full URL.
• Answers a single question — did this person move — so it is cheaper to read and act on than a full profile enrich.
• One profile per call, flat cost.

Two common uses:

• Timing. A new hire in their first 90 days is buying, rebuilding and replacing tools. This is the window.
• Hygiene. A champion who left means the contact record in your CRM is dead and the account may be at risk.

For a promotion rather than a move, use check_promotions.

Parameters

How to use it

Has linkedin.com/in/janedoe changed jobs recently?

Check these 60 LinkedIn URLs for recent job changes. Return only the
people who moved, with their new company. Report credits used.

For everyone who moved, pull their new work email and draft a
three-line note referencing the new role.

Example prompts

Best prompting practices

• Say “changed jobs”. “Got a new role” is ambiguous — it may route your client to check_promotions, which is a different signal at the same price.
• Ask for movers only. “Return only the people who moved” cuts a 60-row report down to the rows you will act on.
• Deduplicate before the run. At 2 credits each, duplicate URLs are expensive.
• Cap the batch. “Stop after 50 and report credits used” keeps a CRM sweep predictable.
• Re-check on a schedule, not on a loop. Job changes are slow-moving. Re-running the same list weekly doubles your spend for almost no new signal.
• Chain the follow-up. A mover needs a new work email — the old one is dead. Pair with find_work_email.

Output

{
  "profile_url": "https://linkedin.com/in/janedoe",
  "job_change": true,
  "new_company": "Ramp",
  "new_title": "VP Sales"
