A LinkedIn headshot before a job search
Your current profile picture is a cropped holiday photo. You're applying for jobs this month and want a professional headshot without booking a photographer.
- Take a selfie facing a window in daylight, phone at eye level, with a neutral or small smile.
- Choose Pro and the Grey studio or Modern office look for a classic corporate feel.
- Check that it still clearly looks like you, then upload it to LinkedIn and crop to the circle.
- Use the same headshot on your CV and job sites so recruiters recognise you everywhere.
