Job listing sources
Vacancies may arrive from configured job APIs and aggregators such as Careerjet or Remotive. A feed is a discovery and synchronization mechanism, not proof that every field is complete. The original destination remains the authority for application instructions, final compensation, eligibility, and availability.
Each imported record receives an external identifier, normalized fingerprint, source URL, first-seen and last-seen timestamps, and expiry date. Listings must pass the quality rules described in the methodology before entering the public sitemap.
Editorial source hierarchy
- Primary employer pages, official government or regulator publications, legislation, and public datasets.
- Original reporting, academic research, and recognized professional bodies with relevant evidence.
- First-party analysis of the active FindTheJob.today job index, with the sample and date described.
- Aggregators, newsletters, social posts, and search results as discovery leads that should be traced to stronger evidence.
Citation rules
A citation should support the specific claim beside it and link as directly as possible to the underlying source. We do not cite AI-generated text as evidence. When an external page changes or disappears, we may replace the citation, qualify the claim, or remove it.
Salary and market signals
Salary figures can reflect posted ranges, currency, pay period, seniority, location, or incomplete source data. Market signals summarize the current indexed sample; they are directional observations, not a census of all jobs or a promise of compensation. Pages should state the date, geography, and comparison basis needed to interpret the number.
Freshness and limitations
Feeds and source pages can lag, change, or conflict. A job may close before its scheduled expiry. Employer names and locations may be normalized imperfectly. We refresh records throughout the day, remove expired pages from the sitemap, and provide a correction path for problems that automation misses.
AI and derived text
AI can assist classification, summarization, and draft organization only from supplied records and sources. Derived text must not introduce unsupported employers, qualifications, salary claims, or citations. Source coverage and duplicate risk are part of the publishing decision.
