An application photo is usually provided in the format 60 mm \u00d7 45 mm and thus is a little bigger than an ususal passport photo. The application photo should be a portrait photo and thus only show your head, shoulders and perhaps a part of the chest. By a good application photo you have the possibility to decisively put yourself in scene – the first impression counts!<\/p>\n
A direct look and a friendly, natural smile make you likeable and authentic. The head should be centred in the middle on the application photo. One can also easily take the photo from the side. A slightly inclined head position is also possible. However, please do not exaggerate. For this, you best use the specially customized template of our application photo generator<\/a>.<\/p>\n Does it concern rather a conservative enterprise or are the clothing regulations rather liberal? If you apply, for example, on a streetworker job, a suit would be probably a little bit too pompous. Depending on branch quite different possibilities exist. However, with covered and rather darker colours – women blouse and blazer, men shirt, tie and jacket – applicants are probably on the right side for most of the jobs. Garish colours and patterns should better be avoided. Concerning clothes, instinct is asked, but as a rule of thumb. “Better too chic than the other way round”. The hair should\u00a0definitively look well-arranged. Take the picture best of all a few days after a hairdresser visit and give yourself the necessary time. Besides, thanks to digital technology, you can take many pictures and select only the best.<\/p>\n It is important that you choose a neutral background for your photo which forms a strong contrast to your clothes. A white wall is the way of choice. Choosing a photo booth cabin, the possibilities are more than limited. If you are applying for a job in the fresh air, e.g., as a gardener, you can also take a photo outside. Nevertheless, one should not be too adventuresome. Recruiters of larger companies have usually seen hundreds of images or developed grids by which your application photo could fail quickly.<\/p>\n We wish you a lot of success!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Format An application photo is usually provided in the format 60 mm \u00d7 45 mm and thus is a little bigger than an ususal passport photo.
