Age counts days since the employer published the posting. Around a third of sources publish only a coarse date such as “30+ days ago”, so the older end of this distribution is less precise than the recent end. It is the most-cited signal that a role may not be actively filled — a signal, not a verdict.

Fewer than one posting in six publishes a range here, and the ones that do are not a random sample. Treat these figures as indicative of the disclosing minority, not of the market.

FAQ
Questions people ask
How many jobs are open in Boston?
The open-roles tile is the live count across every role we track in Boston.
What is the median salary in Boston?
Shown above, computed only from postings that disclose pay.
Figures cover 39,963 postings collected from public company career pages and applicant
tracking systems, last recomputed 2026-09-02.
“Posted N days ago” counts from the date the employer published the listing, not from when we
first saw it. A posting that has been up for months is a common sign it is not being actively
filled — though a long-lived listing is a signal, not a verdict.
