Hello,
I need someone to extract information from the Stanford University directory, and send me the results in a spreadsheet. To understand the requirements:
1) Go to the directory here: [login to view URL]
2) Search for "Johns"
3) Notice the 8 results match "Johns" exactly and will not match names such as "Johnson"
4) Click on the third result "Jennifer Johns"
5) Notice the email address, affiliate, department, and position fields
I need ALL RECORDS in the database. The output will have the following fields: NAME, EMAIL, AFFILIATION, DEPARTMENT, POSITION. Please see the attached sheet for a sample output. Please deliver the final output in exactly this format.
To show that you understand the requirements, please answer the following questions:
1) Search for "Jackson". How many records are there?
2) I need ALL the records that meet the search requirement. Will you do this using a script? or manual entry?
3) If you plan to use a script, please briefly explain how your script will work to ensure that you get all records.
Please note, all bids between $20 - $40 will be considered.
Hello
Previously, I've done three similar project (for you?) (for Indiana, Texas and Duke universites).
I create a sample for you for all requests wich begin from letter "a".
You can see it at link [login to view URL]
This file contain all records with firstname or lastname starting from letter "a".
And answers for your questions:
1. Query "Jackson" returns 73 results (56 for lastname and 17 for firstname).
2. I using script.
3. Script will search by one letter and wildcard '*' to receive all records. This site requires at least three symbols when using wildcard.
If website will return more than 100 results then script will add additional letter form set and search again.
If again more than 100 results it add letter, etc.
I think using this algorithm I will get all records you need.
I can do this project in 1 day.
Waiting for your response.
UPDATE:
My script already finished and I got about 58000 records.
