Dropbox keeps my résumés and cover letters in sync

For the last few months, I’ve needed constant access to my résumé and cover letters. Friends have offered to take a look and provide feedback, recruiters ask for the latest copy, and for a while I was making small tweaks every day (even if it was just formatting).

Dropbox has been a serious lifesaver and syncs my documents between my Mac, PC, and iPhone flawlessly.

I maintain a Career folder, which contains company subfolders, each containing a custom résumé and cover letter. It’s been great when I absolutely need to get my hands on the latest version of a document. Nothing worse than potentially missing an opportunity because you waited until you got back to the house. Never again!
