JOB OPPORTUNITIES IN NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING

Canon Research Centre Europe Ltd
Guildford, UK

Canon Research Centre Europe is looking for new recruits for its
Natural Language group. We are looking for people who will fit well
into the group on a permanent basis, rather than for a specific
project. A good computer science or linguistics background is
important, as are excellent programming skills. Top quality computer
scientists without any previous experience of Natural Language
Processing are encouraged to apply, as well as people with experience
in the area.

For more information about these openings, and about Canon Research
Centre Europe in general, our URL is http://www.cre.canon.co.uk/.

Our work ranges from long-term basic research to solving specific
problems quickly, and from interactive spoken dialogue systems to
large-scale text translation. We are currently embarking on embedding
our Natural Language software in realistic hardware platforms.
Skills/expertise relevant to this area would be useful.

Creativity and a flair for innovative work are essential.

Canon Research Centre Europe has been on the University of Surrey
Research Park since 1988. We doubt that you would be disappointed by
salary, equipment or working environment. Our recruitment policy is one
of equal opportunity.

Please note that you need to have the right to work in Britain. If you
are not a citizen of one of the member states of the European Union,
please check whether you are eligible before applying.

If you are interested, please mail a detailed CV to

 nljobcanon.co.uk

Plain text is preferred, but other formats (PostScript, LaTeX,
Framemaker, troff, etc.) are acceptable. Alternatively, you can send a
paper copy to:

which will be processed as they arrive until suitable people have been
found. We expect to be hiring about 3 more people over the course of
1995.
