Editorial policy

These are the rules every SarkariHawk page follows before and after it is published.

Last updated

Sources

Facts come only from official sources: the recruiting body’s notification, corrigenda, notices and result documents on its official website. We never copy facts from other job websites; at most we use them to learn that a notice exists, and then read the official document.

Checking

Before a page is published, every number and date on it is checked against the official document. Numbers we calculate ourselves, such as totals of post-wise vacancies, are worked out from the figures printed in the notice. Each page names the person who checked it and when.

Writing

Pages answer the questions aspirants actually ask, in plain English and everyday Hindi. The Hindi text is written from the same checked facts, not translated word for word. Estimates, such as expected release dates or expected cut-offs, are always labelled as estimates, with their basis.

Updates and corrections

When an exam moves to its next stage, or a corrigendum changes a date or number, the page is updated and shows when it was last checked. Mistakes are corrected openly: see our corrections page.
