 The tool to do this is at the end of the survey, on the "End Survey" page in the table of contents.

+Unfortunately, in the downloaded PDF Qualtrics provides you just has a marker for the uploaded file -- you won't be able to see the attached resume in the PDF you download.
+Rest assured, however, that it is there, and any file you attach will be made available to the committee.

+=== (New Grads) isn't this the same as the graduate student GTA guarantee survey? ===
+There is some understandable confusion here.
+This survey is about finding out what skills job applicants have in relation to the TA jobs actually on offer this semester.  You need to fill this application out to let us know what skills you have, and at what level, in relation to the jobs specifically actually on offer this term.
+In a related process, graduate student applicants are asked to complete a similar survey speaking about senior courses **in general**.  That survey is done only once, and only in the case of new graduate students applying to the program, and only in the context of whether a certain number of GTA positions may be guaranteed to a graduate student as part of their letter of offer.
