Because of delays with my scholarship payment, if this post is useful to you I kindly ask a minimal donation on Buy Me a Coffee. It shall be used to continue my Open Source efforts. The full explanation is here: A Personal Message from an Open Source Contributor.

Continuing with the previous Selenium post, now I will add the URL for each job offer and export the result to an XLSX file.

This requires the writexl package to write XLSX files:

if (!require(writexl)) install.packages("writexl")

To read the HTML it is the same as before but the page may have changes:

library(RSelenium)
library(rvest)
library(dplyr)
library(purrr)
library(writexl)

rmDr <- remoteDriver(port = 4444L, browserName = "chrome")

rmDr$open(silent = TRUE)

url <- "https://www.empleospublicos.cl"

rmDr$navigate(url)

search_box <- rmDr$findElement(using = "id", value = "buscadorprincipal")
search_box$sendKeysToElement(list("Ministerio de Salud", key = "enter"))

The first offer listed is this:

Inspecting that element, the link to the job offer is here:

<a class="cronograma btn " url="https://www.empleospublicos.cl/pub/convocatorias/convpostularavisoTrabajo.aspx?i=130648&c=0&j=0&tipo=convpostularavisoTrabajo"

I can organize all the job offers using purrr:

html <- read_html(rmDr$getPageSource()[[1]])

offers <- html %>%
  html_nodes("div.items")

timestamp <- Sys.time()

offers_tbl <- map_df(offers, function(offer) {
  # Extract position (job title)
  position <- offer %>%
    html_node("h3 a") %>%
    html_text(trim = TRUE)
  
  # Extract organization (usually the first <p> inside .top)
  organization <- offer %>%
    html_node(".top p") %>%
    html_text(trim = TRUE)
  
  # Extract city (the second <p> inside .cnt)
  city <- offer %>%
    html_nodes(".cnt p") %>%
    .[2] %>%
    html_text(trim = TRUE)
  
  # Extract job offer link (href from h3 a)
  link <- offer %>%
    html_node("h3 a") %>%
    html_attr("href")
  
  tibble(
    position = position,
    organization = organization,
    city = city,
    link = link,
    timestamp = timestamp
  )
})

Here is the result:

> offers_tbl
# A tibble: 545 × 5
   position                         organization city  link  timestamp

To export to an XLSX file:

write_xlsx(offers_tbl, "offers_20250821.xlsx")

I hope this is useful. The next part shll cover reading the details of each job offer on each URL.
