find-job-titles 0.7.0

Fast extraction of job titles from strings

find_job_titles

Find Job Titles in Strings

• Free software: MIT license
• Python versions: 2.7, 3.4+

Features

• Find any of 77k job titles in a given string
• Text processing is extremely fast using “acora” library
• Dictionary generation takes about 20 seconds upfront

Quickstart

Instantiate “Finder” and start extracting job titles:

>>> from find_job_titles import Finder
>>> finder.findall('I am the Senior Vice President')
[('Senior Vice President', 9),
 ('Vice President', 16),
 ('President', 21)]

All possible, overlapping matches are returned. Matches contain positional information of where the match was found.

Alternatively use “finditer” for lazy consumption of matches:

>>> finder.finditer('I am the Senior Vice President')]
<generator object ...>
