Policies & Standards
Editorial Policy
This policy explains how Cluki Jobs researches, verifies, writes and publishes government job information. It governs every page on our platform — every state portal, every notification, every update — and it applies to all members of the editorial team.
1. Our editorial principles
All content published by Cluki Jobs is governed by six principles. Every editorial decision — from which notification to cover to how a page is worded — is tested against them:
Accuracy
Information must be correct and match the official source. When we are not certain, we say so instead of guessing.
Verifiability
Every factual claim is traceable to a named official source, linked from the page wherever possible.
Independence
Editorial decisions are never influenced by advertisers, partners or personal interests. We are not affiliated with any government body.
Clarity
Content is written for candidates, not for jargon. Dates, fees and eligibility come first, in plain language.
Timeliness
Recruitment information is time-sensitive. We publish promptly and keep every page's update status visible.
Accountability
When we make a mistake, we correct it openly and quickly. Corrections are never silent or delayed without reason.
2. Sourcing: where information comes from
Cluki Jobs publishes information gathered from primary official sources only. The preferred sources for every recruitment are, in order of priority:
- The official notification PDF or webpage issued by the recruiting authority (for example, a state public service commission, SSC, RRB, PSC, or department gazette).
- The official website of the recruiting authority, including its announcement, admit-card and results sections.
- Official government publications, employment newspapers and gazette notifications.
- Official press releases or social-media accounts of the recruiting authority, clearly identified as such.
We do not rely on secondary blogs, job-news portals, or unverified forwards as sources. If a widely-shared piece of news cannot be confirmed against an official source, it is not published until it can be confirmed.
3. Verification before publication
Before any recruitment page goes live, it passes through our structured verification workflow. Each item is checked against the official document for:
- Dates — application start, application last date, exam date, result date, and any extended or revised dates.
- Vacancies — the exact number of posts, category-wise and department-wise breakdowns.
- Eligibility — educational qualification, age limit (including category relaxations), and any experience or skill requirements.
- Fees — application fee for every category (general, OBC, SC/ST, PwD, women, etc.) and the payment mode.
- Selection process — written exam, interview, document verification, physical test and their stages.
- Application procedure — the official portal URL, registration steps, and document requirements.
A second editorial review compares the drafted page against the source before publication. Anything that cannot be verified is either omitted or explicitly labelled as unconfirmed.
4. Standards of accuracy & clarity
Our pages follow a consistent structure so that every candidate can find the essential information quickly:
- Key dates, fee, age limit, qualification and vacancies are presented in a clear summary — never buried in prose.
- Application steps are numbered and written for first-time applicants.
- Dates use unambiguous formats and include the year.
- Rupee amounts are written clearly with the exact figure from the official document.
- Uncertain information is marked as expected or not yet announced, never presented as fact.
- Official names of departments and organisations are written correctly and consistently.
5. Independence & conflicts of interest
Cluki Jobs is an independent information platform. Our editorial independence is protected by the following rules:
- We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any government body, recruitment board, or organisation covered on this site.
- We do not publish paid content disguised as news. No recruitment can pay to appear, to rank higher, or to have negative information removed.
- We do not accept fees or commissions from candidates or coaching institutes in exchange for coverage or rankings.
- Editorial staff must disclose any personal connection to an organisation before covering it.
- Information about fees and application costs is presented factually, as published by the authority — we never receive a share of any fee.
6. Updates, corrigendums & versioning
Government recruitments change. Authorities extend dates, revise vacancies, issue corrigendums and publish clarifications. Our policy for handling changes:
- We continuously monitor official sources for corrigendums and updates to published recruitments.
- When a notification is revised, the page is updated promptly and the last-updated date is refreshed.
- Significant changes (date extensions, vacancy changes, new exam dates) are highlighted prominently on the page.
- We never silently rewrite history. The Corrections Policy explains how changes and corrections are recorded and communicated.
- Closed or completed recruitments are marked as such so candidates do not waste time on expired applications.
7. Standard Language & Clarity Policy
All job circulars, official notifications, eligibility criteria, and examination details across all 22 state and national portals are published strictly in clear, standardized English directly compiled from official government gazettes. Our language and editorial standard:
- Every notification is translated and standardized into clear, precise English directly from primary government gazettes and authority portals.
- Names of departments, ministries, statutory bodies, and exam boards are preserved accurately in their official English nomenclature.
- Dates, vacancy numbers, pay scales, application fees, and qualification requirements are rigorously verified to eliminate translation errors or linguistic ambiguity.
- Standardized terminology ensures uniform clarity and equal accessibility for candidates across every state and union territory in India.
8. Outbound links & official sources
Links are an editorial responsibility. Our rules for links:
- Primary sources are linked whenever available, so readers can verify directly.
- Links point to the official website of the authority — not to intermediaries or agents.
- We do not link to sites that charge candidates for application assistance or sell documents.
- If an official link changes or breaks, we update or remove it and note the change.
9. Who writes and who decides
Editorial leadership sits with the Founder & Chief Editor, Fazlay Rabbi, who is responsible for editorial standards and final decisions on matters of accuracy and policy. Day-to-day writing and research is performed by our editorial team, and every publication is subject to the review process described in this policy.
Content decisions — which recruitments to cover, how to present them, and how to respond to corrections — are made editorially and independently of any outside influence.
10. How this policy is enforced
This policy is binding on everyone who writes for or edits Cluki Jobs. We monitor our own output for compliance, and we respond seriously to reader reports of errors or policy violations. If you believe a page violates this policy, please tell us via the Contact Us page — we investigate every report.
This policy is reviewed and updated as needed. The version on this page is always the current one; the last update is reflected in the page's publication metadata.
