Desk of HR

Tools, careers and the business of recruiting, for people who work in HR.

HR Focused serves HR professionals, recruiters and agency owners: tools, careers, and the business of recruiting. Tool comparisons use public pricing and vendor docs; salary and market figures name their source. Disclosure: we're affiliated with Sortinghat, an ATS/CRM for staffing agencies, and say so on every relevant post.

How every story is checked

1. Research starts from primary sources: filings, company releases, official documentation, papers and government data.
2. Every person, company, product, place and number needs a primary source or two independent ones before it can appear.
3. A separate fact-check pass, which did not write the draft, re-checks each name and number against its source. A story that fails is held, not published.
4. Prices, salaries, scores and rankings carry an "as of" date. Company and lab claims are labelled as theirs.
5. We never claim hands-on testing we did not do.

Research, drafting and fact-checking are assisted by AI tools working under these rules. Sources are listed at the end of every story.

Corrections

When we get something wrong we fix it and add a dated correction note to the top of the story, saying what changed.
