AvoidLinkedIn headshot questions
Is it OK to use an AI headshot on LinkedIn?
Yes, as long as it looks like you. Pick results that match how you look today so people recognize you in meetings.
Should I smile in my LinkedIn photo?
A relaxed, natural smile usually comes across as more approachable. Include a few smiling selfies so the model has something to work with.
Which background works best?
A soft office blur or light gray. Both stay readable in the small circle and work for most industries.
Can I use the same photo everywhere?
Yes. Using one headshot across LinkedIn, Slack and your email signature makes you easier to recognize.
