Reception
Rahul Desai of Film Companion wrote "The Job is difficult to understand. It is even harder to hear. But then, so is the human mind".[2] A critic from IANS wrote, "The Job has more questions than answers. It relies entirely on its lead actress's ability to convey angst in times of excruciating crisis. And I am not entirely sure that is a good thing or bad".[3]
