I’m getting more and more requests from clients who lost their resumes because their computers crashed. Of course, it’s no problem to re-send the files, but I wonder about job seekers who aren’t able to access their files and have to rebuild their documents from scratch. To prevent this extra work, I recommend regular system backups as well as off-site storage in case something happens to the local backup.

Now there’s no excuse — Amazon is making off-site storage easy by offering Amazon Cloud Drive and 5 GB of storage for free. You can upload your resume and other important files and access from any computer. Give it try and let me know how it works for you!
