At the moment I'm using the following to call up the status:
./jobscheduler.sh status | grep job_name | grep state | awk '\{print $5\}'| awk -F"=" '\{print $2\}'
and I'm getting this answer:

We suggest you try:
./jobscheduler.sh status | sed -e 's;><;>\n<;g' | grep job_name | grep state | awk '\{print $5\}'| awk -F"=" '\{print $2\}'
or, to reduce the size of your answer, use:
./jobscheduler.sh command "<show_job job='job_name'/>" | sed -e 's;><;>\n<;g' | grep job_name | grep state | awk '\{print $5\}'| awk -F"=" '\{print $2\}'
