Common mistakes to avoid

Dark selfies, cluttered backgrounds, visible filters, and overly rigid expressions can make a resume photo look weak or unreliable.

A clean face crop, simple pose, consistent background, and outfit aligned with your professional environment usually do most of the work.

How AI actually helps

AI can improve lighting, clean the background, and tighten the crop while still preserving a believable version of you.
