Strong candidates demonstrate deep Punjabi grammar knowledge and can justify corrections in written feedback. Less suitable are applicants who lack native Punjabi proficiency, struggle with English-level communication, or cannot work across multiple time zones. Candidates who cannot clearly handle both Gurmukhi and Shahmukhi scripts or who have limited experience with AI data training may not be a fit.
