    {
      "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": "When does the school want the joining date to be?",
      "a": "Joining dates are usually negotiable around the school calendar. Mid-term joining is common for replacement vacancies; new positions often align to April or the start of the next term."
    },
    {
      "q": "What questions are asked in a HOD Science — Sankalp English School interview?",
      "a": "A full library of role-specific interview guides (PRT, TGT, PGT, subject-wise, coordinator, principal) with model answers is at /interview-questions."

    },
    {
      "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": "Can I negotiate the salary at Sankalp English School?",

      "q": "What's the interview process like for this teaching role?",

    },
    {
      "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": "Is this a fixed-term or open-ended contract?",
      "a": "The employment type is shown in the Key Facts section above. Fixed-term roles usually align to the academic year; permanent roles are open-ended after probation. The final letter will spell out renewal and exit terms."
