Simple Resume Template with Photo

What can help your application to stand out, is a resume with photo. It gives a potential employer an imagination of who you are. It also helps them to remember you as a candidate.

However, it is not always a good idea to send a resume with a picture. For example, in the United States, it is not common attaching an image to your resume. It is recommended to keep you resume simple so that it can be readable for applicant tracking systems.

Nevertheless, if you apply for a job abroad, check first what are the resume writing standards over there. Maybe that sending an elegant resume with photo is something totally common. In that case, if you apply with a basic resume format without a picture, your curriculum vitae could be missed out.
