In C Program, determine if job is running

Is it possible to run the following Unix command in a C program and obtain results as to whether the job is running or not?

ps -ef | grep 'job_name' | grep -v grep

I'm fairly new at C and need to know what code I'd need in the C program.

Thanks, in advance, for your assistance.
