Response times vary, but shortlisted candidates are typically contacted within a week. You'll get a notification on School Jobs India the moment the school updates your application status.
Is background verification done before joining?

Does Santhanam Vidhyalaya help with relocation from another city?
Many CBSE, ICSE and IB schools in Tiruchirappalli offer on-campus or subsidised accommodation, one-time relocation reimbursement, or help finding rentals nearby. Ask about "relocation assistance" and "staff quarters" in the interview — it's a common ask.
How long after the interview until I get an offer letter?
