    {
      "q": "How long does it take to hear back after applying?",

    {
      "q": "What is the salary for this Accounts Incharge — St. John’s English School & Junior College 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."
