    HR doesn’t like to be put in situations where they might be accused of discrimination. If you put a headshot on your resume you are going to get it thrown out. The only exception is something like modeling.

      Not hr but I screen a lot of applications. It’s very common to see photos and we don’t throw these out. If someone wants to see what you look like it’s a 10s search unless you’ve really gone out of your way to keep a low profile.

      My favorite tactic is to create a Privacy (.com) burner card that is 1-time use and only allows $1 max. Running the card fails, which reminds me to go cancel the service, and the 1-time use means if it does somehow get charged, I’m only out $1.
