      "q": "How will I know if my application is being reviewed?",
      "a": "Every status change (viewed, shortlisted, interview scheduled, offered) is pushed to your dashboard and email. Turn on job alerts for the same role in the same city so you don't lose momentum if this one pauses."

      "q": "What is the average Headmistress salary in Pune?",
      "a": "Refer to the on-page \"Salary snapshot\" for the current market band. Broadly, Headmistress pay in Pune rises with years of experience, board (IB > CBSE > state), and school size — the linked full pay report breaks these out further."

      "q": "How do I make a resume for a ICSE Headmistress job?",
