Shameful request - Java coding example...

Ahoy,

I've got an idea I'd like to try and bring to life - I'd like to create a short video based on hiring a programmer...

The idea is to have the job specifics broken down into a Java search (if that makes sense) so title, salary, location, skills/experience included as lines of code, something like this...

search.for {
var "senior programmer"
based.in
var "London"
salary
var ">£xxxxx"
with
var "java" and "PHP" and "SQL"
apply
var "xxxx"}

Obviously the above is complete gibberish but it'd be REALLY helpful if any of you lovely people could provide me with an example code, it doesn't have to make work but it should make sense to people that the role would be relevant for.

I hope that makes sense :)

Thanks in advance!
 
There's not really a "java search" as such because the API's depend on the structure and source of the underlying data. Searching a database is completely different to searching scrapes of web pages.

"senior programmer" is meaningless by the way. In some organisations I would be called one by reason of 30 years' experience, in others I would not because I don't have line management responsibility for anyone. You need to qualify what you mean with that term.
 
Code:
 var searchParams = {
    position: "senior programmer",
    location: "london",
    salary: ">£xxxxxx",
    skills: {"java", "PHP", "SQL"}
}

$.search(searchParams);

Edit: updated to something a bit better
