The end of the year is right around the corner. What is going to be your New Year's resolution? Some people want to get in shape, eat healthier, set new goals, and others want to get ahead in their career. If that’s you, start by looking at your profile pages like your LinkedIn. How is your headshot? Does it look like you? Is it up to date? Is it professional? If you answered no to any of these questions, it’s time to hire a professional photographer because having a high quality profile photo is essential in this digital age.
Here are the top 3 LinkedIn Profile Photo Mistakes:
-
Your photo does not look like you anymore: With so many recruiters looking at LinkedIn, you do not want to create a bad first impression by walking into the interview not looking like who the recruiter thought you would be. A general rule of thumb is to update your headshot every 2 years.
-
Unprofessional clothing: A LinkedIn headshot should be professional. This means wearing clothing that gives the recruiter an impression that you are serious and ready to work.
-
You used a cellphone: The problem with a cellphone is that when you upload a photo, the quality of the image will not be as high quality as if you were to upload a professional photo.
Start the new year on the right foot by having a top notch headshot that will help you get any job you desire. Contact us today to book a session. We would love to work with you!
