You should write it like this:

iNode := Sel.selectNode('//Link[@role = "self"]');

which will get you the first Link node in the document with attribute role="self" (even if there is more than one).

Or you can go the absolute path:

iNode := Sel.selectNode('/Response/ResourceSets/ResourceSet/Resources/DataflowJob/Link[@role = "self"]');

or even something in between

iNode := Sel.selectNode('//Resources/DataflowJob/Link[@role = "self"]');
