How do I choose the right profile photo to use on LinkedIn?

 

       

 

  • Pick a photo that looks like you

  • Use a high-resolution image - The ideal size for your LinkedIn profile picture is 400 x 400 pixels.

  • Your face should take up at least 60% of the frame

  • Only you should be in the photo

  • Get someone else to take the picture for you

  • Choose the right expression

  • Avoid busy backgrounds

  • Wear what you’d wear to work

  • Take the photo in soft, natural light
