Experience & Location Updates
As described in Data Updates, keeping our experience
and locations
objects current is one of our primary focuses. Here we outline how we communicate these updates to customers across both fields.
job_
and location_
fields
job_
and location_
fieldsEvery experience
and locations
object has an is_primary
field that contains a boolean value. For a single profile, there will be at most one profile tagged as primary. This profile will appear in the flattened job_
and location_
fields. The primary values are the ones we believe to be the most recent/relevant object from the experience
/locations
array.
last_updated
Field
last_updated
FieldThe last_updated
field exists for both locations
objects and the top-level experience object (as the job_last_verified
field). It indicates the last time one of our Data Union partners saw a person's location and/or current job "in the wild." Since many of our data partners are themselves focused on data accuracy, we are able to utilize their timestamps to accurately map when this value was last seen. The last_updated
date does not necessarily indicate that a change in the field occurred but when the most recent data source was provided this data and confirmed its accuracy.
