Hi, not sure if this post is where its meant to be...

Anyway... I recently tried applying for a job at apple, using their website... I have a slight problem uploading my CV though.. (at least I think its a problem)

When I'm editing my profile it says upload CV, so I click it, and choose my CV pdf. I then click the confirm button and it lets you look at ur whole profile before you submit... However at the bottom where I uploaded my CV it just says C:\fakepath\CV.pdf.... So I have no idea if it uploaded properly or not :s

Any help please? :confused:

Did you upload the .pdf from a Windows computer?
Anyway, if it shows up on the right of that "Choose File" button, it has been properly selected and will be sent to Apple once you hit the SUBMIT button.

No from a macbook... yes once I choose the file it shows up with the name next to the button, i was just worried about the C:\fakepath\CV.pdf... But if you say thats fine then... thanks :)

For me it just says "About Stacks.pdf" (the .pdf I attached) there in Safari 5.0.4.
Maybe you use a different browser? Strange though it shows "C:\", since that is the Windows partition/volume hierarchy.

I'm trying to apply and I get the same "fakepath" statement. How'd you fix this? I tried using Mozilla firefox (3.6.22, safari (5.1) and even tried google chrome. I also tried using a pc to apply to the jobs and still got the same thing. I don't know what to do if you guys could help me that would be amazing.
