### Should You Add a Photo to Your Resume?

The answer depends on **where you apply** and **your target industry**:

- **Europe & Latin America:**  
  Resume photos are still expected in many countries.

- **United States & UK:**  
  Photos are often discouraged due to bias and legal concerns.

- **Creative roles:**  
  Designers, marketers and actors may benefit from showcasing their look.

- **Corporate & tech roles:**  
  Safer to skip in the US/UK, but common in Germany, Spain, France, Argentina and more.

If you do include a photo, it must look **clean, professional, and consistent** with your brand.  
That’s exactly what the AI Photo Generator provides.

For **LinkedIn**, a clear headshot is always a good idea. Recruiters expect it.

### Pro Tips for Resume Photos

- **Keep it recent:**
  A photo older than 2–3 years may feel misleading.

- **Neutral background:**
  Light grey or white makes you stand out without distraction.

- **Attire fits the role:**
  For a developer job, smart casual is fine; for consulting, opt for a suit jacket.

- **Use the same headshot everywhere:**
  Resume, LinkedIn, personal site — consistency builds trust.

- **If unsure, skip:**
  When applying in regions where photos aren’t standard, focus on content instead.

### FAQ

**— Is my photo safe?**  
Yes. Your image is only used to generate the requested headshot and is not stored or reused by us.  
Processing is handled via Gemini API — according to their [API data usage policy](https://ai.google.dev/terms), content from API calls is not used for training their models.  
We recommend reviewing their privacy terms if you’d like to know more.

**— Can I generate multiple variations?**  
Absolutely — try again until you’re satisfied.

**— Does it work for LinkedIn profile pictures too?**  
Yes. The output is perfect for both resumes and LinkedIn.

**— What if I don’t want to add a photo?**  
That’s fine! The generator is optional. In some regions (like the US) leaving it out may even be preferable. Your LinkedIn profile can still use the headshot.
