I want to see your smiling face in person, not on your resume

I’ve had a few resumes in this past month with the candidate’s picture on them.  In our multi-media world, I’m sure it’s a tempting thing to do.  All I can say is, please don’t.  It’s problematic for medical sales recruiters and pharmaceutical industry hiring managers, for a lot of reasons–which creates a problem for you.  You want us to be focused on and interested in your skills and achievements, first.  Then you can come in and wow us with your charm and personality.  Chris Russell has a great post about this with some insightful comments from HR managers.
