You can configure Recruiterbolt to create a Recruiterbolt *Event* record when it sees that a Salesforce *Lead* or *Contact* has a different Employer compared to the last run. There isn't a single way to achieve this. The following tutorial suggests moving the Salesforce *Contact* to their new company by changing the *Account Lookup* of the *Contact* to the *Account* in the Salesbolt Event's Likely *Account* (if populated) and also update the email address (if populated).

This approach will also move Salesforce Tasks to the moved Contact, and thus may also remove the communication history from the old Account to the new Account. Hence, it's unsuitable if you want to keep your communication history associated with the relevant account.
