Done and it works! 🙂

You are my hero! The error was coz of a typo on filter (typed it as fitler).

Here is the tweaked code snippet just in case anyone else ever wants to achieve the same thing.

function populate_vacancy_applied_for($field) {
  // only on front end
  if (is_admin()) {
    return $field;
  }
  if (isset($_GET['vacancy'])) {
    $field['value'] = $_GET['vacancy'];
  }
  return $field;
}

add_filter('acf/prepare_field/key=field_5dba152669aaf', 'populate_vacancy_applied_for');
