You can try editing the cells so that whenever they are converted to excel they are automatically read as a hyperlink. Provided I am correct with the excel formatting, the change would go like this.

jobsdf['Job Url'] = jobsdf['Job URL'].map('=HYPERLINK("{}")'.format)
jobsdf['Apply Url'] = jobsdf['Apply URL'].map('=HYPERLINK("{}")'.format)

Now all your cells will look like this =HYPERLINK("https://the.corresponding.link") and once converted, excel will read them as hyperlinks
