Hi All.
what is the UK standard when sending a CV? Should it include a photo or not?
Thanks you.

    Haha yh sure.

    Na you're not supposed to put a photo on because of discrimination purposes. They could look at your pic and think no thank you :D Even if you're a nice person

    I've never seen a resume with a photo, unless a business card with a photo is attached to it. And I've never been asked for photo to accompany my resume. I assume that's a very uncommon request in the IT world.

    I dont think putting photo in the resume is a bood idea.
    Parents can only give good advice or put them on the right paths, but the final forming of a geeks person's character lies in their own hands.
