      "q": "I'm serving notice — should I still apply?",

      "q": "How long does it take to hear back after applying?",

      "q": "Is this a fixed-term or open-ended contract?",
      "a": "Most permanent teaching roles in Indian K-12 schools are open-ended after a 3–6 month probation. The offer letter you receive will state the exact terms, including probation, notice period and confirmation criteria."

    },
    {
      "q": "What non-teaching duties are expected?",
