Best practices for a professional photo

As a professional, having the right profile photo on your account is crucial. It's your first impression on potential clients, recruiters, and colleagues.

A profile picture that represents who you are as a professional can make a world of difference in how others perceive you.

Here are some best practices to keep in mind when selecting a profile photo:

1. Use a high-quality photo: Avoid using low-quality, blurry, or pixelated photos. Invest in a professional headshot or take a high-resolution photo with good lighting.

2. Dress: Dress professionally and avoid casual attire or clothing with logos.

3. Choose a clean background: Avoid using cluttered or distracting backgrounds. A solid colour or simple pattern can work well.

4. Smile and make eye contact: Smiling and making eye contact can create a friendly and professional impression.
