From Jonathan:

Hey everyone,

I graduated from the iSchool last year (MLIS 2015) and am currently working in a managed service role as a Text Analyst for Indigo Slate in Bellevue, WA. We are looking to expand the team and could use some information focused people to help write boolean queries to accurately filter and scrape social media documents relevant to our client’s needs. If you have skills in natural language processing or social media data mining, we would love to hear from you. Send your questions, resume, or Linkedin page to me at [email protected].
