Accurate details are essential when submitting content - updated on 5th March 2023
When submitting content across all sections of ISC, all of us should take care that we are putting in accurate details, however minor. For example, when submitting an article on admission, it is necessary to provide the accurate eligibility criteria, when the admission will close, etc.This thread alert is specifically for the jobs section. The editors have found that in some job posts, while the newspaper edition is correctly given, other details are not accurate. For example, the page number is not the one where the advertisement appears, or the email ID or phone number that is given in the advt. has typo, etc. Please understand that every bit of information that you provide is important, no matter how minor you may consider it to be. As of now, the editor may correct such minor details, but note that you are expected to be responsible to give accurate information. So do make it a point not to be hasty and after submitting, double-check the post and make corrections where necessary.
As of tomorrow (3rd March), if any inaccurate data is found, the post may be shifted to pending or even deleted. We do not want complaints coming to the admin. from educational institutes and putting the authenticity of the content on our site in jeopardy. Also, in case the editor requires clarification from you, whether about the details given in the post or about the source, please respond to the message sent to you within two days.
An important update- Starting tomorrow, a job post must mention the paper link or official website link with the published date as a reference in the source. That is, the URL of the source should be given, with the published date clearly part of it. In case the URL itself does not have the date, then at least when it is opened, the newspaper's date should be seen on it. This is to ensure that we are having current vacancies only and not outdated ones. In the case of taking from the website's career section, too, the URL should be given, and, on the recruitment notification page, the published date should be there (in case the published date is not given, then the last date to submit applications should be clearly seen in the notification).
We are putting this update in our jobs FAQ as well.
Most important - Ensure that you regularly check the email that you have provided at your ISC profile account so that you do not miss out on any important messages from the admin. or editors.
