Your practice task

Build one Gemini Notebook for a real job you would apply for. Add at least four sources: the job ad, a public report or strategy from the employer, your own CV and a web page about the employer. Ask five questions and open the citation of every answer, marking each as supported or not supported. Set the output language to Finnish and make one audio overview, then check one name or fact from it against the source. Make a Document report, export it to Docs and edit it to a one page interview prep note with only lines you can prove. Submit the list of sources, the five questions with a mark for each answer, the fact you checked in the audio and the prep note.
