Two things people routinely forget. Version history is visible to anyone with edit access, including earlier drafts and any comments left on them — share view-only, or download and re-upload a clean copy. And confirm the sharing setting actually works for an outside viewer; a link restricted to your school or company domain will simply fail to open for a recruiter.
Students and recent graduates working with a campus career center, and anyone getting written feedback from mentors or peers — commenting in Docs is genuinely better than trading attachments. It suits the drafting stage more than the submission stage.
When layout precision matters. Docs gives you less control over spacing, kerning, and page breaks than a purpose-built editor, and complex layouts drift when copied in. Draft and collaborate in Docs if that suits you, then produce the final submission file elsewhere and send a PDF.
