TANDEM’S RESUME TIPS: PUTTING A PICTURE ON YOUR RESUME
Kent R.
Q: Can I put my picture on my resume? A: You can, and some people do. My two cents... leave your picture off of your resume.
This seems to be becoming a bit of a hot topic again, as people look for creative ways to stand out from the crowd in a packed job market. I'm seeing an increase in the use of pictures and understand the need to differentiate.
Except in the rarest of situations, I stand by my assertion. While a picture may effectively set you apart, it also increases the possibility that you will experience employment discrimination.
