Specific board requirements (CTET, IB workshops, IGCSE training) may also apply." }, { "q": "How do I make a resume for a CBSE HOD Science job?", "a": "Use the free school-style resume builder — role-anchored headline, B.Ed/CTET/PD block, and measurable outcomes per school (a one-page PDF is what shortlisters want): /resume-builder." }, { "q": "What is the salary for this HOD Science role?", "a": "Refer to the salary range posted on this page.
