Hey @rambalachandran, thanks for the update!

I'm curious: is JobFunnel working on your end?

[rambalachandran]

@thebigG No not working at this time. I'm also getting the error mentioned in Issue #144. You were working on a fix. Is that complete? If not, can you please let me know if there is an old commit when it was working that I can revert to and upgrade the requirements and test.

Unfortunately this project has been more or less killed by that issue, until someone with some interest can help us out. Captcha has effectively broken our cli tool.

[thebigG]

Just like @PaulMcInnis said: CAPTCHA and dynamically-loaded sites have unfortunately rendered this project useless. It is unfortunate, but the CAPTCHA is something we just simply cannot solve by just writing code. If they want to give us a CAPTCHA, they will give us CAPTCHA. There isn't much we can do about it.

I tried getting around it, but couldn't really figure anything out. If anyone is interested in what I was working on(which I'm not anymore), you can look here:https://github.com/thebigG/JobFunnel/tree/dynamic_scraping

If anyone wants to give it a go, go ahead by all means. But honestly I'm not sure if this issue can really be solved in code. Though I hope I'm wrong about that.

Seems our pipeline isn't getting any runners... hmm.

Closing this until we resolve #148
