Jobs rush | THESE jobs now get over 1k applicants - is HR also on the list?

New research from CV-Library has uncovered the jobs that received more than 1,000 applications each on its site last month, proving the heightened level of competition in the UK jobs market.

Trainee paralegal (4,228 applications), HR assistant (3,333 applications) and trainee accountant (3,272 applications) were among the top three roles that garnered the highest level of interest from candidates in July 2020.

Warehouse worker, administrator and digital marketing assistant also received a wealth of applications last month too.

This news comes as many Brits look for new roles following furlough, redundancy or simply because they want a career change.
