[QUOTE="kodip, post: 844503, member: 56853"] Hi everyone, I’m trying to improve my professional presence on LinkedIn and would like advice on headshots. What qualities make a LinkedIn headshot stand out to recruiters and hiring managers in 2026? How important are factors like lighting, background, facial expression, and attire compared to professional editing? Do you think casual smartphone photos can work if taken well, or is a studio session still necessary? Also, how much does industry type influence the style of a headshot? I’d appreciate tips, examples, or common mistakes to avoid when choosing or updating a LinkedIn profile picture for better engagement and credibility overall. [/QUOTE]
