Jerkson makes Scala JSON so easy, can it be the same for XML?
Json(generate(Job.search(parseDate(date),accountId)
      .map(job => Map("id" -> job.id,
      "name" -> job.name,
      "userId" -> job.userId.getOrElse("")
    ))))

def tag( name: String, content: Seq[Node] ): Node =
  <xml></xml>.copy( label = name, child = content )

def toXML( label: String, content: String ): Node =
  tag( label, Text( content ) )

def toXML( root: String, map: Map[_,_] ): Node = {
  val children = for( (k,v) <- map ) yield {
    v match {
      case m: Map[_,_] => toXML( k.toString, m )
      case a => toXML(k.toString, a.toString )
    }
  }
  tag( root, children.toSeq )
}

val data = Map(
  "id" -> 121,
  "foo" -> Map(
    "hoo" -> "bar",
    "goo" -> "baz"
  )
)

val xml = convert.toXML( "example", data )

<example>
  <id>121</id>

    <hoo>bar</hoo>

val someNode = <root>
                   <child>
                       Some stuff goes here
                   </child>
               </root>

someNode  "child" // returns the child node
