Our comment policy

We at Careers360.com welcome your feedback to our qna/career/ course reviews, advisories and other articles featured by us. But do keep the following pointers in mind before posting a comment:

1. Please keep your comments/ feedback/ queries limited to the subject matter of the article you are responding to. Please note that our comments section is not a general free-for-all. It is for feedback to articles and relevant queries posted on the site. Please try and keep your comments concise and clear. Short messages tend to get noticed and also have a high probability of getting published in our respective print magazines.
2. Please do not spam us. Please do not post the same message again and again. Even in different threads
3. Scathing, passionate, even angry, critique is welcome; abuse and invective are not. We request civility and urge our readers to try and express their disagreements, if any, without being disagreeable. There is just no space for personal attacks. No ad hominem, please.
4. If any of the above three conditions are violated, we reserve the right to delete any comment that we deem objectionable and/or also to withdraw posting privileges from the abuser(s).
   
   

   Please note that it may not be possible for our moderators to sift through your messages and if they find more than one instance of abuse, they may decide to delete all your messages ever posted by you rather than spend time trying to locate all the abusive ones. Therefore, if you want us to take you seriously and for your messages to be retained on the site, please ensure that you do not cross the civil lines of propriety.

   
   

   Please note that hate-speech is punishable by law and in extreme circumstances, we may be forced to take legal action by tracing the IP addresses of the poster.

   
   

   Our endeavor is to keep these forums unmoderated and unexpurgated. Please help us help you.

5. If someone is being abusive or personal, or generally being a troll or a flame-baiter, please do not stoop to their level. The best response to such posters is to ignore them and send us a message with links to the offending mails at the following email address: Editor At Careers360 DOT com.Please put "COMPLAINT" in the subject header of your mail.
6. Please do not copy and paste copyrighted material. If you think that an article on another site has relevance to the point you wish to make, please only quote what is considered "fair-use" and provide a link to the article under question.
