"Barista" ranks first for growth in job searches this year, according to new data from hiring platform Indeed.
"Ireland visa sponsorship" ranks second, followed by "hotel" in third place. "Receptionist" and "kitchen porter" also made the top ten searches.
The most common overall search on Indeed remains a "blank" query, where jobseekers enter a location but leave the job title empty.
"This signals both career uncertainty and openness among jobseekers exploring new directions," according to Indeed.
Almost 14% of searches on the company's Irish site now come from abroad, while 42% of workers in Ireland have foreign work experience.
Searches for "remote" and "work from home" roles also feature on the list of top queries.
The data shows that almost one in five job postings in Ireland now mention remote or hybrid options, sustaining the post-pandemic shift toward flexible working.
"This year's top growing searches show us what jobseekers value most: opportunity, flexibility and mobility," said Conor McCarthy, Vice President at Indeed.
"The rise in hospitality and visa sponsorship searches reflects both a resilient domestic sector and strong global interest in Ireland’s labour market," he said.
"Meanwhile, demand for remote and work-from-home roles indicates a flexible work trend that’s here to stay," he added.
The research is being released as Indeed hosts its annual FutureWorks event in Dublin today, where hiring professionals will hear from guest speaker Bob Geldof.
