Preferred evidence
Employer career pages, public policy pages, benefits pages, active postings, and government references carry the most weight.
Source inventory
This page lists the public source trail used for HireTea's 74 published company guides and 438 indexed hiring guides. It also summarizes the 2026 source-verification layer: 1451 audited source rows, 434 curated source links, and 1100 checked hiring claims across the published company set.
Quick answer
Treat this as a transparency layer, not a promise that every local posting works the same way. Preferred sources include official employer pages, current posting language, public policy pages, government references, and other materials close to the hiring process. Lower-confidence sources can explain what applicants ask about, but they should trigger a fresh check against the current posting, recruiter message, or candidate portal. The audit layer separates kept, caveated, dropped, and needs-recheck claims so unsupported details do not silently become applicant guidance.
Employer career pages, public policy pages, benefits pages, active postings, and government references carry the most weight.
Review sites, forums, syndicated listings, and broad summaries can surface applicant questions, but they do not override current employer instructions.
Before making a decision, verify the exact job title, location, department, schedule, pay language, and onboarding instructions.
Coverage summary
| Signal | Current count | How HireTea uses it |
|---|---|---|
| Indexed hiring guides | 438 | Used to align this source inventory with the XML sitemap, human sitemap, and LLM content map. |
| Public source links | 1084 | Used to keep company pages tied to visible public references instead of unsupported summary text. |
| Preferred-source links | 1077 | Used as the stronger evidence layer when a page discusses process, pay, requirements, or applicant next steps. |
| Lower-confidence source signals | 7 | Used as question-discovery signals only; applicants should not treat them as final instructions. |
| Links with access or update dates | 1084 | Used to decide whether a page should be refreshed before the published guide set expands. |
| Source-backed topic facts | 564 | Used when a hiring topic needs a visible fact box tied to a public source and access date. |
| Audited source rows | 1451 | Used to separate the full verification corpus from the smaller curated source set shown on pages. |
| Curated audit sources | 434 | Used when official, regulator, vendor, or operator sources are strong enough to join a company fact sheet. |
| Checked hiring claims | 1100 | Used to keep supported claims, mark caveats, and hold weaker claims out of applicant-facing copy. |
| Follow-up audit claims | 208 | Used as cleanup work, not as public-page evidence, until a later review resolves each item. |
| Companies with audit stats | 64 | Used to show which company hubs expose source-verification metadata in their fact sheets. |
Verification layer
The source audit is larger than the public link list. Each company can have dozens of reviewed URLs and checked claims, but only a curated subset is added to the fact sheet. DROP and NEEDS_RECHECK findings stay in cleanup notes, which protects public pages from inheriting weak or stale claims while preserving the research trail.
Audited URLs are counted by source type, including official company, vendor, regulator, operator, mirror, third-party, user-generated, and dead or unverified rows.
Hiring claims are classified as KEEP, KEEP_WITH_CAVEAT, DROP, or NEEDS_RECHECK before they can influence page copy.
Company pages show a smaller source set with tier badges so readers see the evidence layer without turning each page into a raw URL dump.
Company coverage
This table shows the source coverage for each company hub currently included in the published guide set. A higher source count does not automatically make every answer final. It means the page has more public material to compare before an applicant checks the current posting.

Reader workflow
Use the active job posting, candidate portal, recruiter message, and local hiring contact before treating a broad company page as final.
If a source date is older than the posting you are reading, prefer the newer posting and save a screenshot or copy of the instruction.
Known limitations explain when a detail may vary by role, department, location, property, franchise, season, or manager handoff.
Send source updates, broken links, or disputed details to jeongyuseck@gmail.com with the page URL and date viewed.
