Search eFinancialCareers Jobs by Location and Keyword

Search the public eFinancialCareers site for jobs matching a location and keyword without login, using the direct slug-based results route and returning the page status plus visible job-result links and titles.

Use Cases

Use when the caller supplies a country or region and a job keyword, such as Economist or Analyst in Switzerland. This avoids homepage navigation and is also useful for verifying that the public search page is reachable.

Automation Flow

1. Build the direct results URL from the inputs, taking the locale domain from the caller and defaulting to efinancialcareers.com: https://www.{locale-domain}/jobs-{location-slug}-{keyword-slug} For a language route on the global domain, insert the language segment: https://www.efinancialcareers.com/{language}/jobs-{location-slug}-{keyword-slug}. Convert spaces to hyphens and remove punctuation; the observed route uses capitalized location and keyword components, but the route is case-tolerant. The observed run used {locale-domain} of efinancialcareers.ch, where location Switzerland and keyword Economist produce /jobs-Switzerland-Economist.
2. In one browser call, navigate directly to the selected URL with domcontentloaded, record the navigation/HTTP status to check that the public search is reachable, and run this evaluate() extractor on the loaded page:

(() => {
  const clean = value => (value || '').replace(/\s+/g, ' ').trim();
  const absolute = href => {
    try { return new URL(href, location.href).href; } catch (_) { return null; }
  };
  const seen = new Set();
  const jobs = [];

  for (const a of document.querySelectorAll('a[href]')) {
    const href = absolute(a.getAttribute('href'));
    const title = clean(a.textContent);
    if (!href || !title) continue;

    const parsed = new URL(href);
    const path = parsed.pathname.toLowerCase();
    if (!/(^|\/)jobs?(?:[\/-]|$)/.test(path)) continue;
    if (path.includes('/jobs-')) continue;

    const key = `${href}\\n${title}`;
    if (seen.has(key)) continue;
    seen.add(key);

    const card = a.closest('article, li, [data-testid*="job" i], [class*="job" i]');
    jobs.push({
      title,
      url: href,
      context: clean(card ? card.textContent : '')
    });
  }

  return {
    url: location.href,
    pageTitle: clean(document.title),
    headings: [...document.querySelectorAll('h1, h2')]
      .map(element => clean(element.textContent))
      .filter(Boolean),
    jobs
  };
})()

Possible Friction Points

• The locale-specific .ch route is directly reachable as /jobs-{location}-{keyword} without the /de prefix; this was confirmed for the Switzerland/Economist search.
• The existing global fallback is www.efinancialcareers.com/de/jobs-{location}-{keyword}. The .ch domain may redirect or serve a different landing page in other circumstances, so record the final URL and navigation status.
• Do not assume an opaque job ID or invent a detail URL. Follow an extracted result link when a specific job page is needed.
• Job cards may contain multiple anchors to the same listing. The extractor identifies listing links from their URL paths, excludes the search route itself, and deduplicates repeated title/link pairs.
• The extractor uses URL-path matching rather than one CSS class because card markup can vary across locale and responsive layouts.
