Why The Professional Headshot Is Important For Everyone’s Resume

With hiring in America now being done at full throttle, many who are looking for work are realizing they are missing perhaps one of the most important yet overlooked aspects of their job applications: The Headshot. 

When faced with multiple candidates for a single position, many recruiters will go back to each application to reaffirm what they heard in the interview. But even with this review, all recruiters are human and cannot be expected to remember everything about a candidate, even what they look like. This is where the headshot comes in. A headshot adds that personal quality that is sorely lacking when staring at a resume or job application. We at Jeffrey Rosenberg Photography are experts in tailoring professional headshots to make them seem personal no matter the situation. 

A headshot reaffirms that there really is a person behind those pages of an application. But there is perhaps one more reason why a headshot is arguably the most important part of anybody’s resume: First impressions are still important.

Whether your interview is in person or over Zoom, your interviewer will have at least glanced at your application long before you ever set foot in the room. Because of this, having a crisp, clean headshot will ensure you look professional and ready for whatever comes your way. Studies have shown that first impressions are extremely hard to change once they are made, making a headshot a vital part of any application, no matter the field.

We at Jeffrey Rosenberg Photography have years of experience in making sure your headshots give the best first impression possible!
