add location field for job postings #11

Closed kshawkin closed 11 years ago

kshawkin commented 12 years ago

We have fields like job type, employer, and job URL but not a field for location. This isn't always apparent from the text of the posting (where is "Wright State University"?), and it would be nice to provide this information without requiring users to look up institution in Wikipedia or trying to find this information somewhere at the job URL.

The location should be available in the Freebase data see #10. I like your idea of starting to display the information minimally in the job view and then add shiny geo specific views/filters later once it is working.

For showing geo views, might take a look at http://jobs.lofhm.org/ Code at https://github.com/lofhm/DH-Job-Archive/
