/api/v1/profile/employment-history
Complete LIVE work history for one person: per-role organization, title, description, location, parsed dates, per-role skills, and parallel-position groupings (concurrent titles kept distinct rather than flattened). Overlaps /api/v1/profile/full-experience, which reads the dataset record — use this when you need freshness, per-role skills, or correct handling of concurrent roles. Pass `handle` and Zooq resolves it at no extra credit cost, or pass `entityId` from /api/v1/profile/entity-id to skip the lookup. Not-found is free upstream.

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| handle | string | no | Public profile handle — the part after linkedin.com/in/ — or the full profile URL. Resolved to `entityId` automatically at no extra credit cost. Any person identifier is accepted here and sorted by format (handle, URL, ACoAA… entityId, prsn_ id). Provide `entityId` OR `handle`; `handle` is the simplest. (e.g. satyanadella) |
| entityId | string | no | Live person entityId (ACoAA…) from profile_entity_id / profile_enrich; the urn:li:fsd_profile: form is accepted. A prsn_ id (dataset namespace, from profile_full) or a handle placed here is recognized and translated automatically. Provide `entityId` OR `handle`. |
