1. Why This Policy Exists
Job seekers make life-changing decisions based on the information they read online. A single fabricated recruitment notification, an inflated salary figure, or a fake application link can cost a reader money, time, or an opportunity. job.sarkarilakshya.com therefore treats fact-checking not as a final editorial step but as the foundation of every article we publish. This policy sets out how we verify claims, what standards we apply, and how we correct mistakes when they occur. It works alongside our Editorial Policy, which explains our broader publishing principles.
2. What We Verify
Not every sentence requires the same level of scrutiny. We distinguish between factual claims that must be verified and general guidance that reflects our editorial judgement. Factual claims include: the existence of a recruitment notification; the name of the issuing department or company; vacancy counts; eligibility criteria such as age limits and educational qualifications; salary figures and hourly wages; application deadlines; official application URLs; and visa programme requirements such as Specified Skilled Worker (SSW) rules. General guidance — for example, advice on how to prepare for an interview — is labelled as guidance rather than fact.
3. How We Verify Domestic Recruitment Claims
For Indian government and private-sector recruitment, our first check is always the originating source. A notification is not published until a writer has located the official circular, departmental press release, or verified company career page that announces the vacancy. This applies across all sectors we cover, including engineering, healthcare, insurance, education, and banking, as well as support-staff vacancies in electricity departments (Bijli Vibhag), airports, hotels, universities, and metro rail systems.
Where a notification is circulating on social media or WhatsApp forwards but cannot be traced to an official source, we treat it as unverified and either do not publish it or publish it with an explicit warning that it has not been confirmed. Fake government job websites and appointment letters are a persistent problem in India. We cross-check application links against official domains wherever possible, and we flag any recruitment that demands a registration fee, medical fee, or document-verification payment before an offer is confirmed.
4. How We Verify International Job Guides
Our Japan job guides present salary tables, visa pathways, and eligibility criteria that readers may rely on when planning an overseas move. These carry a higher burden of proof. Wage figures are checked against official or verifiable listings and are dated so readers know when the figure was confirmed. SSW programme details are cross-referenced with official immigration and sector-specific requirements. Where a salary range varies by prefecture, experience, or employment type, we present the range and explain the variables rather than quoting a single headline figure.
This standard applies to all our international coverage, including guides on Narita Airport security guard roles, construction jobs under the SSW route, school cleaning and facility management, AEON retail positions, and European opportunities such as egg collector jobs in Italy, store helper jobs in Spain, kitchen helper jobs in Italy, welder jobs in Spain, and pizza shop jobs in Italy. Application links in these guides are checked before publication and reviewed periodically, because broken or hijacked links in international job content can direct readers to fraudulent intermediaries.
5. Sourcing Standards
We prefer primary sources: official circulars, government portals, company recruitment pages, and official visa programme documentation. Secondary sources — news reports, aggregator sites, and social media posts — are used to identify leads but are not treated as confirmation on their own. This approach reflects the principle that readers should be able to verify findings themselves, with sources identified in enough detail to allow replication . When a claim cannot be verified through a primary source, we say so in the article. We do not present unverified information as established fact, and we do not remove caveats to make a job opportunity sound more attractive.
6. Non-Partisanship and Consistency
We apply the same verification standard to every claim we check, regardless of which department, company, or sector it concerns . We do not concentrate our fact-checking on any one employer, state, or recruitment authority. Our judgements are based on the evidence available, not on commercial relationships or external pressure. Where a source has a relevant interest that a reasonable reader might conclude could influence the accuracy of the information, we disclose it.
7. Separation of Fact-Checking from Commercial Interest
Fact-checking must be independent of advertising and partnership relationships. No advertiser, recruitment agency, or employer can pay to have a claim verified, to have a caveat removed, or to have an unverified vacancy presented as confirmed. Where content is sponsored, it is labelled as sponsored, and the fact-checking standards described in this policy still apply.
8. Corrections and Updates
Errors happen. When a reader or our own review identifies a factual error — a wrong deadline, an incorrect salary figure, a broken application link, a misstated eligibility criterion — we correct it promptly. Where the correction materially changes the guidance a reader would take from the article, we add a visible note explaining what was changed. We do not silently delete errors. Readers can report suspected errors through our Contact Us page. Corrections are logged internally so that recurring problems in sourcing or verification can be addressed. This commitment to open correction is a core part of credible fact-checking practice .
9. Transparency About Limits
We are a career-information platform, not a government recruitment agency or a visa authority. We verify what we can against official sources, but we cannot guarantee that a third-party employer will honour a vacancy, that a visa will be granted, or that a salary quoted in a listing will be paid in practice. Where our information is time-sensitive — as with rolling recruitment or annual visa cycles — we date the article and advise readers to confirm details on the official application page before acting.
10. Reader Responsibility
We encourage readers to treat any job offer that demands upfront payment, requests sensitive documents before an official selection process, or cannot be traced to an official domain with suspicion. Our fact-checking reduces risk; it does not eliminate it. The final verification step — checking the official portal before paying or sharing personal information — belongs to the reader. We also urge readers to report suspected fraud through our Contact Us page so that we can warn others.
