      "q": "How long does it take to hear back after applying?",
      "a": "Schools usually shortlist within a week or two. Set up a job alert for similar roles so you don't miss the next match if this one doesn't move forward."

    {
      "q": "What qualifications are required for a Receptionist — VPM’s Vidya Mandir?",
      "a": "The role expects relevant qualifications and prior experience in a similar setup. Schools generally prefer candidates with verifiable training and references for Receptionist — VPM’s Vidya Mandir positions."

    {
      "q": "Will I get PF and statutory benefits?",

    {
      "q": "I'm serving notice — should I still apply?",
