Can I get the job state in HPC without having to use a callback event?

Is there a way that I can ask the scheduler to give me the job state back using c# where I don't have to use a callback event?
I have a loop that is running in the main method. I would like to stop that loop when the task, or job is finished something like this:
if (jobFinished)
{ //set progress to 100% and end.
}

Hey,
you should be able to poll the state of the job
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.hpc.scheduler.ischedulerjob.state(v=vs.85)
If you don't find the state updating, you will probably also need to refresh it

Ok, this is not working as I would want it to. If I use the JobState State {get} property which the link points to above I can only figure out how to use it in a CommandWriteLine.
I can't seem to use this like I want to which is:
if (job.State < 128)
{
//do stuff here
}
I have a loop that I am running, and I want to know when the "Finished" state occurs so that I can stop looping and end.

if(job.State != JobState.Finished)
{
//do stuff here
}
all enums for jobstate are here

Michael,
Thank you very much for your assistance. This was the last piece of the puzzle I needed to complete my script (for now). I really do appreciate your help!
P.S. Leave your boss's email address here - I want to call him and get you a raise! :>)
