Jobseeker Photo Tips & Guidelines

Photos that you are not in will be removed.

Do not post a photo if it contains an image of you before you were 18 years of age.

No AI images, no altered images, and no cartoon filters are allowed.

You must be the only recognizable person in any photo you post. Do not post a photo if it contains another recognizable person besides yourself.

Please be sure to convert any images in raw or non-standard formats before trying to upload them. Photos must be in JPG, BMP, PNG or non-animated GIF file format.

Please make sure you don't submit photos with contact information. This includes phone numbers, email addresses and social media accounts.

SEXUALLY EXPLICIT IMAGES ARE NOT PERMITTED ON THIS SITE. Sexually explicit images include but are not limited to images of sexual intercourse, obvious states of sexual arousal or overt sexual positions such as noticeably visible or spread genitalia.

Uploaded photos cannot be a combination of multiple photos.

Each photo uploaded must be unique.

Please limit the size of photos you upload to 10 MegaBytes.

If you don't have any recent photos, hire a professional photographer or ask a friend to shoot some portraits of you.

Make sure to upload clear, well-lit photos that accurately reflect your appearance.

Provide photos of yourself in a variety of poses and in different settings, so that employers can see all of your features. You can post a portfolio of up to 10 of your favorite photos.

Choose vivid, colorful photos instead of black and white images. Photos with bright, contrasting colors tend to attract more attention.

Make sure that your photos are at least 200 x 200 pixels so that your features are clearly visible. Do not send thumbnail photos, as they are too small to be useful.

Choose photos of yourself where you are in the center of the composition. After all, YOU are the focus of your resume!

Artistic nudity is permitted in your photos, but all content must comply with our Photo Guidelines. Make sure to include at least one G or PG-rated photo if you wish to be featured in the public area.

After you upload a new photo, you will be presented with an option to rotate its orientation. We highly recommend you take the time to do so when necessary, as it will dramatically improve the appeal of the photo. If you have an old photo in your gallery that has an incorrect orientation, simply upload a new one in its place and you will be able to rotate it as needed.

After you upload a new photo (and rotate it, if necessary), you will need to create an associated thumbnail image. Our system defaults to an educated guess of what the thumbnail should be, but for best results we recommend you take the time to choose a selected region for the thumbnail that is most flattering.

Don't worry if you don't have any photos to post when you first submit your resume. You can always add or update your portfolio later.
