Enclosed a photo in envelope or print it together in CV (job application)?

Category: Other

AndyAndy


I like to send my job application with a photo of me.

Do you think it's better to slide a passport sized photo inside the envelope, or

insert the photo in CV in ms-word and just print it?

I think it would look more natural if it was printed on the CV at the top with your name and contact information. Sliding a photo in the envelope seems a little odd, unless they specifically ask for a photo or if you are applying for a job based on your looks (modeling, acting, etc.).

Enclose a passport size photograph and stapling it with your CV. Not printing with CV.

A photo is only appropriate if your looks are a specific job requirement, i.e. acting, modeling. Otherwise, including a photo is unprofessional. If you're going to include it, make it part of the resume, so it won't get lost.
