Newly Hired Executives

Give it a company, get back the people who recently joined — new role, start date, and where they came from.

Tool: newly_hired_executives
Cost: 0.5 credits per profile
Category: Person Signals
Required input: company
Returns: Recent hires with new role, start date, previous role

What it does

Finds people recently hired at a company. Pass the company name or its LinkedIn company URL.
Each hire comes back with their profile, new role and start date, plus the role they held before.
seniority_levels defaults to Director, Vice President, CXO and Owner / Partner — leadership only. Override it to widen or narrow.
functions restricts hires to a department. locations restricts by geography.
Returns 5 hires by default, up to 100 via max_results.

This is the one tool on this list billed per profile, not per call. At 0.5 credits per profile, a default run of 5 costs 2.5 credits and a run with max_results: 100 costs up to 50. Set max_results before you run it, not after.

This is the company-side counterpart to check_job_change. That tool watches people you already know; this one watches an account and tells you who arrived.

Example prompts

Ask your client	What you get back
”Who recently joined Stripe at VP level or above?”	Leadership hires with role and start date
”Recent Engineering hires at acme.com, max 10”	Function-filtered hires, capped at 10 profiles
”Where did the new CRO come from?”	The previous role attached to each hire
”Did our champion at Stripe change jobs?”	Better served by `check_job_change` — one known person

Best prompting practices

Always state max_results. This is the only tool here that bills per profile. “Max 10” is the difference between 5 credits and a surprise.
Use the default seniority unless you have a reason not to. Leaving it alone keeps the result set to decision-makers. Adding Senior and Experienced Manager widens it considerably, and every extra profile costs 0.5 credits.
Filter by function. A Sales hire and an Accounting hire are not the same lead. Narrow before you widen max_results.
Prefer the LinkedIn company URL for companies with common or ambiguous names.
Read the previous role. It tells you what tools they are used to and what they are likely to replace.
Run it per account, on a cadence. Monthly on a target list is a rhythm. Daily is spend without signal.

Output


{
  "hires": [
    {
      "name": "Jane Doe",
      "new_title": "VP Sales",
      "start_date": "2026-06-01",

}

Credits and limits

0.5 credits per profile returned, not per call. max_results accepts 1–100 and defaults to 5.

`max_results`	Cost at full return
5 (default)	2.5 credits
20	10 credits
100	50 credits

Run check_credits (free) before sweeping a list of accounts.

A tight filter set — one function, one seniority level, one location — can return nothing at a small company. Widen the filters rather than raising max_results, because raising the cap on a filter that matches nothing does not help and raising it on a filter that matches everything gets expensive.

Tool	Use it instead when
`check_job_change`	You are tracking one person you already know — 2 credits
`check_promotions`	You want internal moves at the company, not new arrivals — 2 credits
`find_people_within_company`	You want everyone in a role, not just recent hires — 0.3 credits
`company_job_listings`	You want the roles they are still hiring for, not the ones already filled
