Applying for jobs can be a long, strenuous, and stressful task. Sometimes, it takes weeks to months and tens to hundreds of applications before you find a job that fits your schedule, salary, and location preferences.
So, while you’re on the job hunt, it’s important to apply whenever and wherever you can. But if you don’t have consistent access to a computer, putting in job applications can be even more daunting.

But if you have an iPhone, you can upload your resume, cover letter, and portfolio to the application from your phone. Here’s how.
How to use your iPhone to upload your resume
What you need: You need your iPhone and your resume, cover letter, or portfolio. You’ll need to have your resume, cover letter, or portfolio already completed. You’ll also need to make sure those documents are in a Doc, Docx., or PDF file type. The process should take about 2 to 3 minutes.
Make sure your documents are polished and ready for a prospective employer to see. Then, save them and email yourself a copy of each document. If you have a Mac or MacBook, you can AirDrop the documents directly to your iPhone.
Once you’ve emailed yourself the documents, click on the attachment and press the share button located in the top right corner of the screen.

Then, scroll down and find “Save to Files.”
The next screen will prompt you to choose where you want your documents to be within the Files app. I like to save my documents in the “On My iPhone” folder. Once you decide where you want your documents, hit the save button in the upper right corner.
When you find a job you want to apply for, you’ll be asked to upload your resume. The website will then ask if you want to upload a photo or a file. Click “Choose File.” After that, find your resume in your saved files. It will probably be at the top since it was your most recently saved document.

Then, click on your resume, and it will be uploaded to the application.
And that’s it. You’ve uploaded your resume to an application without needing to complete the application on a computer. You can repeat the same steps for your cover letter or portfolio if the applications calls for those documents.
Now, fill out the rest of the application and wait to hear back from the employer. Good luck!
