Therefore, one quick glimpse of your profile picture can make the difference of getting hired for your dream job or setting the tone for working towards that promotion.
A good headshot gives people an idea of your personality.
For example a serious look shows determination, a smile can mean that you are a very approachable person. You set the tone for the impression you need to make.
It serves as a reminder to your clients. They can easily remember you in a meeting or while networking at a business conference.
Keeping your headshot up to date is very important as it shows a disconnect if your client has seen a picture of you before a meeting that was taken years ago.
It can make you stand apart from your competition especially your Linkedin profile. Many pictures on Linkedin are simply bad cuts of photographs and some are taken in unprofessional environments.
Having a professional headshot makes you feel good. It can boost your confidence especially when you share it among your peers.
Remember it portrays that all important first impression made in one tenth of a second!
