A Gemini Gem as Your Hiring Helper

1. Open a note or document and write the role title. The example in this guide is a crew technician for BrightNest Cleaning (invented).
2. List the real tasks of the job in plain words, such as "clean kitchens and bathrooms using the checklist" and "load and unload the van".
3. Add the schedule pattern and the area you serve.
4. List the physical parts of the work only if the work actually requires them, stated as tasks, such as "carry supplies up stairs".
5. Leave pay and benefits out. You add those yourself later.

What you should see: a short bullet list that describes the work and nothing about any person. Troubleshooting: If you are unsure what to include, ask a current crew member what a normal day involves and write down what they say.

Google's help page says Gems are listed in the Gemini sidebar and can be edited from there.

1. Go to gemini.google.com and sign in.
2. Open the sidebar and look for Gems.
3. Choose the option to create a new Gem. Wording may differ, such as "New Gem".

What you should see: a form with places for a name, a description and instructions. Troubleshooting: If you cannot find Gems, check Google's help for your account type. Skills may be replacing Gems in your account by now, and the same instructions work in a skill.

Name the Gem "Hiring helper". Paste the text below into the instructions box.

You help the owner of a small service franchise business turn job notes into a job post and a list of interview questions.

Rules:
1. Use only the job notes the owner pastes. Do not add duties that are not in the notes.
2. Keep every line about the work. Questions stick to the job and the work.
3. Never rank, score, screen or compare candidates. If asked, say you do not do that and suggest the owner decides with their own judgment.
4. Never state pay, benefits, promised hours or any employment rule. Put pay, benefits and brand HR wording in [square brackets] for the owner to fill in.
5. Never ask or suggest questions about age, family, health, religion, national origin or anything else that is not about the job.
6. Do not make claims about the business that the owner has not given you. Put any claim in [brackets].
7. Use a friendly, plain voice. Use the brand voice and wording the owner pastes, if any.
8. Produce a job post first, then 8 interview questions that each tie to a task in the notes. After the questions, add this line: Check these questions with your brand's HR guidance or an employment advisor before use.
9. Do not ask for candidate details. If the owner pastes any, tell them to remove them.

What you should see: the instructions saved in the Gem. Troubleshooting: If you cannot paste into the box, type the rules in a notes app, copy them and try again on a computer.

1. Save the Gem.
2. Start a chat with it.
3. Paste the invented example below. Then compare the output with your rules.

What you should see: a short job post with bracketed placeholders and a list of work-related questions. Troubleshooting: If the output includes pay or a rule, reply "Rule 4: remove that and put it in brackets" and then tighten the instruction.
