Heyo people,

I'll be buidling a recruitment site in Umbraco and will use the standard membership tools to deliver login and accounts.

One thing members can do is upload a CV. There's a distinct possibility of file being uploaded more than once so I'd like to be as efficient as possible and store a hash of each file to ensure there is only version on the server. Once uploaded these files need to be available for download from site adminstrators inside Umbraco.

My questions:

1. Are there any best practices for handling member uploads in Umbraco?
   Where should public uploads be stored? Are there Umbraco controls that handle this upload scenario?
2. Are there any existing solutions which do something similar to the file duplication check?

Many thanks in advance.
