Overwriting Pain
I am currently the webmaster for a resume site (just re-created from the stone age of static html pages) and have discovered the same problem. I am currently researching fixes. One fix that comes to mind is to have the file name checked against previously uploaded file names and give an error/warning message when this occurs so it can be changed. This really should be part of the upload module by default to prevent it from happening at any time.
On a related note some of our job seekers have multiple resumes, one for each career field they have experience in. How do you handle that issue on your site?

Actually...
Actually today I discovered that the newly uploaded resume file will automatically change name and have _0 or _1, etc appended to the end of the file name. Interesting quirk.
