Stage 1 – Adding or updating your profile photo
We need a photo for your profile and for identity. Your profile is visible to employers when you apply for a shift or a job.
When you upload a photo, you can either take a new one or upload one from your files (maximum file size is 2mb).
Profile photo guidelines
The image you upload should:
- be a recent colour photo
- be of you alone (no other people or pets)
- be taken against a pale background
- show you facing forwards with your head and shoulders in the photograph (80% of the photograph should be your head and shoulders)
- show your full face
- be in the centre of the photograph
- if you wear glasses, show your eyes clearly and avoid glare on the lenses
Please avoid the following:
- you should not wear a hat or cover your head unless this is for religious reasons
- do not wear sunglasses
- do not submit a photo with red eye
- do not submit a photo with other people visible
- do not submit inappropriate or obscene images
- do not submit a photo in which you have edited to alter your appearance or which has had a filter applied to it
- do not submit an image of someone else or copyright protected images
