Picture on resume

CFA General
#1

My girlfriend did it and she said her current employers liked it a lot. I’m just putting the finishing touches on my current resume and she reccomended that I do this… I see potential for this at a smaller shop. It could eliminate that possibility that you’ve got tattoos all over you among other things. However, I see this as more beneficial to girls. But a guy, I dunno I think ud come off as a giant D-bag. Your thoughts?

#2

It confirms that you exist. PS - post her pic or she dont exist

#3

Dbag-of-the-century move.

Definitely use a pic. Reality Kings and Bang Bros are hiring.

In Europe pic on resume are common

#11

That’s because European chicks are typically hotter than American chicks. Who disagrees?

#12

“In Europe pic on resume are common” same with Japan

#13

if you’re doing sales i could see how it might make sense, but its quite d-baggey. your resume should speak for itself. if you are applying for sales, its an assumption that you aren’t horrible looking so a picture either just confirms this or it will deter them.
