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
Which cities hire the most retail associates?
The top locations chart above ranks cities by open postings for this role.
Is retail associate a remote-friendly role?
The remote share tile shows what percentage of current openings are advertised as remote.
Figures cover 32,702 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.
