The Employment object

The Employment object is used to represent a job position at a company.

If an integration supports historical tracking of employments, it will be reflected in the data. If not, a new Employment object will be created whenever there is a change in job title or pay. The effective_date field should be used to order Employment objects, with the most recent date corresponding to the latest employment record for an employee.
