Verbal confirmations sometimes come sooner — always wait for the written offer before resigning your current role." }, { "q": "What is the salary for this HOD Humanities 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": "Is this a fixed-term or open-ended contract?", "a": "The employment type is shown in the Key Facts section above.

Mid-term joining is common for replacement vacancies; new positions often align to April or the start of the next term." }, { "q": "What's the interview process like for this teaching role?", "a": "Most schools have 2–3 rounds: an HR call, a demo lesson, then a leadership interview. Be ready to walk through one of your lesson plans and how you handle classroom management." } ] }
