International CVs
Use a clean portrait for markets or portals where a CV photo is common.

A resume photo is not always expected, especially in the United States, but many professionals still need a restrained portrait for CV markets, portfolio profiles, internal mobility pages, academic bios, or application portals that request an image. This page is built for people who want a photo that supports the document instead of overpowering it. The goal is simple: look current, clear, and professional, with a calm expression and styling that does not distract from your experience, skills, and role fit.

Choose a restrained business look with a neutral background, clear face, and minimal styling.
Yes, but LinkedIn can tolerate a slightly warmer expression and tighter crop than a conservative resume photo.
