  "faq": [
    {
      "q": "Is background verification done before joining?",
      "a": "Yes — most schools run document and reference verification, and many use third-party background checks. Keep your last 2–3 employer references and original certificates ready."
    },
    {
      "q": "How long does it take to hear back after applying?",
      "a": "Most schools review applications within 5–10 working days. If you don't hear back in two weeks, the role has usually been filled or paused — keep applying to similar openings in the meantime."
    },
    {
      "q": "Is school transport available for staff?",
      "a": "Staff transport varies. Larger schools with their own fleet usually allow staff onboarding on existing routes; smaller schools may not run dedicated routes."
    },
    {
      "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 there a probation period?",
      "a": "Most schools run a 3–6 month probation with the same salary as confirmation. Confirmation is typically subject to satisfactory performance reviews and document verification."
    },
    {
      "q": "What qualifications are required for a Library Assistant?",
      "a": "The role expects relevant qualifications and prior experience in a similar setup. Schools generally prefer candidates with verifiable training and references for Library Assistant positions."
    },
    {
      "q": "Where exactly is The Blue Mountain School located?",
      "a": "The school is in Ooty, Tamil Nadu. Check the \"About the school\" section for the campus link and the nearest public-transport reference."
    },
    {
      "q": "Can I negotiate the salary at The Blue Mountain School?",
      "a": "Yes — the band shown is a starting point. Schools consider your last-drawn CTC, teaching experience, board expertise (ICSE/ISC) and any specialist skills. Come prepared with a specific number and a 1-line justification."
    },
    {
      "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": "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."
