Should You Include A Photo On Your Resume? by kings59: 12:46pm On Jun 09, 2019
A resume should address your experience and skills in an articulate, concise and professional manner, so it's about knowing what to include in a resume that is of added value. For this reason, it's recommended to avoid adding a photo to your resume.
Whether it’s deliberate or not, a photo on your resume could result in discrimination on the basis of race, age, gender or other factors.

Your resume is a tool to help you secure a job interview – don’t give a potential employer any reason to ignore your skills and experience by focusing on your appearance.

Some argue that if you include a photo on your CV, you come across as naïve and unprofessional.

So to be on a safer side, I see no reason why I should include a photo on my resume.

Feel free to add yours.

To avoid defamation, I wouldn't attach a photo on my resume. Who does that?
