You should be able to just ‘do a search for job seeker’ with the constraint ‘job ID field contains this company’s job’ then use the operator :count to return the number :slight_smile:

Link the fields so the post being applied on has a field called company.

When apply is clicked make changes to a thing: parent job post company

App count = parent group job post company App count + 1

Or do it on the post level so it’s just
Make changes to a thing : Parent group job post

App count = parent group job post app count + 1

Make sure it’s a number field
