Straight answers about work

Explain the answer and its limits

A guide should help you do something: evaluate an opening, describe your experience, prepare for a conversation, or design a clearer hiring process. We distinguish practical suggestions from established findings and label illustrative examples. An example is not research evidence or a promised outcome.

Make the sources visible

Our guides link to primary sources: government agencies, statistical offices, licensing boards and the organizations that set the rules a reader is asking about. Numbered references connect relevant passages to their sources. The source list records when those pages were accessed. Source organizations do not endorse Job.com or our examples.

Be honest about authorship

Every guide and post is signed by the person who answers for it, and each author has a page with their role and their published work. We do not claim a named expert reviewed an article unless that review actually occurred and is credited. We do not create fictional credentials, testimonials, or first-hand experiences.

Public-source guidance is a starting point. Decisions involving employment law, regulated credentials, or individual financial circumstances can require qualified advice and sources specific to your location.

How we use AI

AI helps us research a topic, draft and structure a guide. A person then checks every claim against the listed source, decides what is published and is accountable for it. Every guide that was drafted with AI assistance says so in its disclosure. We never use AI to invent people, quotations, statistics or experiences, and we publish no internal company data.

Who is accountable

Job.com is the publisher of every guide and post. A named editor approves each guide before it is published; where a guide carries a person's byline, that person is accountable for it. Every blog post is signed by the person who wrote it, who answers for it. Questions about a guide or a post go to support@job.com.

Corrections

When a fact, a figure or a source changes, the guide or post is corrected in place, its updated date moves, and the change is listed with its date on the corrections page. A correction says what was wrong and what is right; we do not change a piece silently. To report an error, email support@job.com.

Keep dates meaningful

A guide shows when it was last updated, because it is kept current; a post shows when it was published, because it speaks to its moment. An updated date is reserved for a substantive change to the guidance or its supporting evidence. It is not automatically reset when the website is rebuilt. Some source data describes an earlier period; read that period before applying it to a current decision.

Keep guidance independent of a sales promise

Job.com helps people find jobs and companies find employees. Our guides can point to a relevant next step on Job.com, but they should remain useful without creating an account. They do not guarantee a job, an interview, a salary, or a hiring result. The sources, examples, and conclusions should stand on their own.

Check the evidence with us

Use the linked source to check a claim and its current context. If a fact conflicts with the source, rely on the authoritative source while the guide is reviewed. Check the location, data period, and assumptions behind a claim before applying it to your own decision. Our examples help you organize questions; they do not replace the source material.
