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.

FAQ

Questions people ask

How many paralegal jobs are open in North Carolina?

We track paralegal openings published in North Carolina, refreshed continuously. The count at the top of this page is the current total. Job postings read directly from company applicant tracking systems.

What does a paralegal earn in North Carolina?

The median advertised salary is shown above, alongside the 25th, 75th and 90th percentiles. Only postings that publish a salary are included, so the sample is smaller than the total number of openings.

How do I get this data through an API?

Every number on this page comes from one call to our jobs and insights endpoints. See the API documentation for the request shape and filters.

Figures cover 5,666 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. How we measure this →
