Bring photocopies of your qualifications and at least one professional reference." }, { "q": "What is the salary for this Accountant role?", "a": "Refer to the salary range posted on this page. Most schools negotiate within this band based on your last drawn CTC and relevant experience." }, { "q": "Do staff get fee concession for their children?", "a": "Many schools offer a tuition-fee concession for the children of full-time staff, subject to admission criteria and available seats. The appointment letter or the school's written HR policy is the authoritative source — confirm what applies before treating it as compensation." }, { "q": "Is the salary CTC or in-hand?", "a": "Most Indian schools quote annual CTC. In-hand is lower than CTC once employee PF (12% of basic, capped at ₹15,000 basic/month), professional tax and — where applicable — income tax under the new regime are deducted. Plug the offered CTC into the in-hand salary calculator at /tools/in-hand-salary-calculator for a line-by-line breakdown against this job." }, { "q": "How long after the interview until I get an offer letter?", "a": "Typically 3–7 working days after the final interview, once reference checks and internal approvals are done. Verbal confirmations sometimes come sooner — always wait for the written offer before resigning your current role." }, { "q": "Is background verification done before joining?", "a": "Yes — most schools run document and reference verification, and many use third-party background checks. Keep your last 2–3 employer references and original certificates ready." }, { "q": "How long does it take to hear back after applying?", "a": "Most schools review applications within 5–10 working days. If you don't hear back in two weeks, the role has usually been filled or paused — keep applying to similar openings in the meantime." }, { "q": "Where can I find similar vacancies?", "a": "Scroll to the \"Similar jobs\" section below to see related openings. You can also browse by city (Chennai), role and board on School Jobs India to compare options side by side." }, { "q": "Are meals provided at school?", "a": "Most schools offer a subsidised staff canteen or a daily mid-morning snack and lunch. Boarding schools typically include all meals for residential staff." }, { "q": "Will I get PF and statutory benefits?", "a": "Yes — established schools provide EPF (Provident Fund) and gratuity (after 5 years), and most also provide ESI for staff under the wage threshold. Specifics are spelled out in the offer letter." } ] }
