Long vacations (summer, winter, Diwali, Holi breaks) follow the published school calendar." }, { "q": "What's the interview process like for this role?", "a": "Hiring usually takes 2–3 rounds: an initial call, a hands-on assessment, then a final round. Bring photocopies of your qualifications and at least one professional reference." }, { "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at Maharishi International Residential School?", "a": "Yes — the band shown is a starting point.

Come prepared with a specific number and a 1-line justification." }, { "q": "How do I make a resume for a CBSE Office Assistant job?", "a": "A CBSE-focused resume works best when it starts with a role-anchored headline, highlights B.Ed/CTET/PD upfront, and lists measurable outcomes (result percentages, project launches, retention) under each school.

Mention your last working day clearly in your application so the school can plan the joining accordingly." }, { "q": "Which curriculum does the school follow?", "a": "Maharishi International Residential School follows the CBSE curriculum, so teaching, assessment and reporting align to that framework." } ] }
