Build a resume screening sheet. The role and what success looks like: [ROLE_AND_SUCCESS]. Must-have criteria: [MUST_HAVES]. Useful extras: [NICE_TO_HAVES]. Volume of applications: [VOLUME].

Produce: a sheet with each criterion defined, the evidence to look for on a resume, a scoring scale (0, 1, 2), and an explicit list of things not to score (name, photo, age signals, school prestige unless required, employment gaps by themselves). Include a decision rule (advance if the score is at least X of Y and no must-have is missing; "maybe" pile reviewed once by a second person), a table template: Candidate ID | Criterion scores | Total | Decision | Notes (evidence quoted), and an instruction to anonymize where practical.

Add three worked examples with made-up resume snippets that show how to score, an audit step (compare pass rates across groups when you have enough data and review the criteria if they differ), and a short script for rejecting politely (60 words). Ask me for missing details instead of guessing. Check local screening and data retention rules for [JURISDICTION] [VERIFY].

This output is a working draft and not legal or HR advice. Before use or publication, ask an employment lawyer or HR professional familiar with [JURISDICTION] to check each legal, contractual or policy point.
