Wolt has received about 27,000 applications for courier positions in Finland after introducing new rules that prevent couriers from sharing or renting out delivery accounts, according to https://yle.fi/a/74-20239516" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Yle.

The food delivery platform said the response exceeded its expectations following a two-week recruitment campaign held during the summer.

The application process included people already on Wolt's waiting list, former substitute couriers and new applicants seeking work on the platform.
