A good photo presents a professional image. This is a real business. We are responsible for setting a good example for those on our team as well as for those who would come to visit as guest. It paints a poor image when people use pictures of their pets or pictures that are not appropriate. SFI can not catch all of these so if you see a photo that you think is inappropriate please report it.
Think of your profile photo like a resume. It is the only thing that a prospective employer knows about you. They will form an opinion of you and your offer based on that. Never forget that you only have 1 time to make a good first impression. You want those you look up to you for leadership to respect you and admire your achievements. This can not be completely achieved with a profession photo but it is definitely a step in the right direction.
Be yourself. But be professional. If you love animals, present the image in a positive light. Funny pics of animals doing weird things just are not appropriate. If your wear jeans and a t-shirt then make sure that the jeans are clean and pressed and the t-shirt is tucked. No holes or odd slogans are acceptable. We are here to learn about SFI/TripleClicks and not your favorite beer or hangout spot. I have a suit on because I look good in a suit and it presents a professional image. If you don't like suits don't wear one because it will show in your face on your picture! Be warm and congenial. The same goes for dresses. Be tasteful but if you have a dress that flatters you - go for it!
