Fact-Check Policy
This page sets out exactly what we verify on every job notification we publish, against what source, and how we correct a factual error once one is found. It's narrower than our general Editorial Policy — this is the specific standard every individual fact on this site is held to.
What we check on every post, and against what
| Data point | Checked against |
|---|---|
| Application open/close dates | The official notification PDF/notice |
| Eligibility (age, qualification, category relaxation) | The official notification's eligibility clause |
| Vacancy count (total and category-wise) | The official notification's vacancy table |
| Application fee | The official notification's fee schedule |
| Apply Online / official website links | The recruiting organisation's own domain — never a third party |
| Admit card / result dates and links | The recruiting organisation's official portal, once published |
What we don't do
- We don't publish a vacancy we can't trace back to an official source.
- We don't speculate on unannounced dates, unconfirmed vacancy numbers, or exam outcomes.
- We don't accept payment to list, prioritise, or favourably describe a recruitment.
- We don't let advertising or affiliate relationships on a page change how a job's eligibility, dates, or process are described.
When a fact changes after publishing
Government recruitment timelines shift often — corrigenda, extended deadlines, revised vacancy counts, postponed exams. When an official update is issued, we edit the existing post itself and move its last-updated date forward, rather than leaving the outdated figure live next to a new one. The "Published by" and last-updated line at the top of every post reflects this.
Reporting a factual error
If something on this site doesn't match the official notification, tell us and include a link to that official source if you have it — we treat this as a correction to make quickly, not a complaint to manage. Reach us via our Contact page; we aim to review correction reports within 24–48 hours.
