How resume upload works (plain-language)

Two places in Work Wingman let you hand it your resume: the welcome walkthrough when you first set up, and the profile page any time later.

Under the hood those used to be two separate copies of the same machinery — and like any two copies, they drifted apart until one of them broke (the welcome walkthrough stopped importing resumes on the desktop app while the profile page kept working). Now there is one resume reader that both screens share, so a fix to one is automatically a fix to both.

What happens when you upload:

1. The app checks the file is a .docx and not too large (2 MB max) — before sending anything.
2. It sends the file to Work Wingman's engine on your own computer (or, for the cloud version, to your private cloud session).
3. The engine reads the text out of the document and suggests how to fill your profile from it.
4. Nothing is saved until you review and accept the suggestions.

On the desktop app, this upload door also requires the secret handshake (the launch token described in security) — looking like a friendly local page is not enough, because your whole resume is exactly what a sneaky page would want.
