Correction Policy

How to Report an Error

What Information Should Be Included?

To help us review and verify your report quickly, please include as much of the following as possible:

Providing an official source generally helps our editorial team verify and process the correction faster.

Verification Process

Once a correction request is received, our general editorial review process is as follows:

1. Correction request received
2. Information reviewed by the editorial team
3. Relevant source checked
4. Official notification/source compared, where available
5. Correction accepted, rejected, or clarification requested from the reader
6. Page updated once the correction is verified

We do not guarantee a fixed response or turnaround time for every request, as verification time can vary depending on the nature of the correction and availability of a reliable source.

Priority Corrections

Corrections involving important application information may be reviewed with higher priority, particularly when they relate to:

• Application deadline
• Eligibility
• Qualification
• Application URL
• Official notification
• Application fee
• Stipend
• Selection process
• Vacancy number

Even for these categories, we are not able to promise a specific correction time, as verification against an official source still needs to take place first.

Corrections vs Updates

We find it useful to distinguish between a correction and an update:

For example: if an application deadline changes because of a new official notice, this is generally treated as an update. If a deadline was wrongly stated on our page to begin with, this is treated as a correction.

Minor Typographical Errors

Minor spelling, formatting or grammatical errors may be corrected directly without a separate public notice, since they do not affect the factual accuracy of the information.

Important factual corrections – such as those affecting eligibility, dates, links or stipend – are reflected on the page itself once they have been verified.

Major Corrections

Significant corrections may include:

• Correcting eligibility
• Correcting dates
• Correcting application links
• Correcting stipend information
• Correcting vacancy information
• Correcting selection details

Where appropriate, the article’s update information or “Last Updated” date may reflect that a correction has been made. We do not fabricate a correction history for pages where no correction has actually taken place.

Source-Based Corrections

If a reader shares an official notification or government source that contradicts information published on our website, our editorial team will review the published information against that source.

In general, the latest applicable official notification should be treated as the authoritative source for application-specific details such as dates, eligibility and procedure.

Third-Party Information

Some articles may reference third-party sources in addition to official ones. For important recruitment or scheme-related information, we prefer verification against official sources wherever possible.

This website does not guarantee the accuracy of information published on external, third-party websites that we may link to or reference.

User Suggestions

Readers are welcome to suggest improvements or additional information for any page. However, all suggestions are reviewed by our editorial team before being incorporated, and not every suggestion will necessarily be published or accepted.

False or Unsupported Correction Requests

A correction request may not be accepted in situations such as:

• No reliable evidence is provided to support the claim
• The claim contradicts an applicable official notification
• The request is based only on personal opinion rather than a factual discrepancy
• The information in question cannot reasonably be verified

In such cases, we will try to explain our reasoning to the reader wherever practical.
