Facebook has partnered with Scribd for hosting of document files.

The popular Facebook social networking website is a great way to keep in contact with friends and colleagues, and seems like a good way to keep your resume in circulation.

You can upload your resume to the Scribd website and immediately publish the document to your Facebook feed with a single click.
