Your profile picture is the first impression families will have of you when considering you as their carer. It's important to have a clear and professional profile picture on our portal. Here are some guidelines to help you choose the right one.
When taking a photo, make sure to smile and be centered, occupying about 80% of the frame.
Should I smile in my profile picture?
Yes, as smiles in profile pictures correlate with good relationships.
Do's:
Professional Appearance: Choose a professional-looking photo that reflects your work persona. Avoid using overly casual or inappropriate images.
Clear and Well-Lit: Ensure that your face is well-lit and clearly visible. Avoid using heavily filtered or overly edited pictures.
Neutral Background: Select a neutral background that does not distract from your face. Avoid busy or cluttered backgrounds.
Don'ts:
Group Photos: Avoid using group photos or photos with others in the background. Your profile picture should only feature you.
Inappropriate Content: Do not use photos with inappropriate content. Keep it professional and respectful.
Extreme Filters: Avoid using extreme filters that significantly alter your appearance. Your profile picture should accurately represent you.
