Default Document Upload concerns

When posting my resume and asked to upload to Monster.com, as an example, the
dialog box shows the browse button to select the file to upload with the file
path to access that file. This may sound paranoid, but is there anyway that
someone can access that file or other files on my system by using that file
path?
Thanks in advance,

No. The file is merely uploaded from the local path to the remote server.
That is not to say that you shouldn't secure your PC behind a firewall and
anti-virus software.
