## Answer

Drop resume first, then certificates or portfolio PDFs, drag into order, and merge. Compress afterward if the portal has a size limit. Job Packet can also zip cleaned files with a receipt.

## Limits

- Huge image certificates inflate size — compress scans first.
- Password-protected files must be unlocked first.

## FAQ

### Order of files?

Usually resume first, then certificates in the order the portal requests.

### Upload?

No.

### Cover letter too?

Use Merge resume and cover letter, or add it in the same merge.
