Ungase ucabange ukuthi wenze umsebenzi ongenasici wokusondeza nokusika, kodwa kusesobala ukuthi umi endaweni yokucima ukoma nabangane bakho (futhi mhlawumbe uke waba nama-cocktail ambalwa). Ingabe lowo umbono wokuqala ofuna ukuwenza kumakhasimende akho, osebenza nabo, noma umphathi wesikhathi esizayo?

Kukhona okhiye bendawo yonke ukuze ukhiphe isithombe esiphrofeshinali, esibukeka kahle, kusho u-Ann Pierce, umsunguli kanye noMphathi Omkhulu we-PhotoFeeler, isayithi elikuvumela ukuthi ulayishe ama-headshots futhi uthole impendulo ngokuthandeka kwakho, ithonya, nekhono.

Ngokuya ngocwaningo lokulinganiselwa kwezithombe ezingama-60,000, uPierce ukhiphe izakhi zesithombe esihle se-LinkedIn. Yena no-Nicole Williams, uchwepheshe we-LinkedIn osebenza ngaphakathi endlini, babelana ngamathiphu abo amahlanu angcono kakhulu. [Tweet lawa macebiso!]

1. Yenza isizinda sakho sisebenze. Ungcono ngokubeka imvelaphi yesithombe sakho ngento ehlobene nebhizinisi lakho, uWilliams weluleka. Uma ungumpheki, thatha isibhamu sakho ekhishini. Uma ungumphathi wezentengiso, hamba uye egumbini lokubhoda. "Bheka izithombe zephrofayela ye-LinkedIn zabantu abaphumelele, abanethonya embonini yakho," kusikisela uWilliams. "Lokho kuzokunikeza umbono omuhle wokuthi kufanele ngabe ukuphi."

Khulisa abafundi bakho. Kuzwakala kuxaka, kepha uPierce uthi, "Abafundi bethu ngokwemvelo bayanweba ezindaweni ezikhanya njalo lapho sijabule noma nomuntu esimthandayo." I-flash yekhamera noma ukukhanya kwesithombe sokwenziwa kuvame ukunciphisa abafundi bakho, okuzokwenza ukuthi ukumamatheka kwakho noma umdlandla ubonakale uvuliwe, uyanezela. Uncoma ukusebenzisa uhlelo olufana ne-Adobe Photoshop noma iPicMonkey ukuthinta abafundi bakho. (Musa nje ukweqisa, noma uzobukeka njengomlingiswa wekhathuni.)

3. Gqokisa ingxenye. Le yindlela ephumelela kunazo zonke yokubukeka inekhono futhi inethonya, uPierce ucindezela. "I-blazer emnyama noma empunga elula ingenza izimanga," usho kanje. "Ngisho nehembe elineqhwa elinezinto ezithile ezikhanyayo lizokuthokozisa kakhulu." Kepha futhi, cabanga ngomkhakha wakho, uWilliams weluleka. Uma uyisazi sesayensi yezinto eziphilayo noma umqeqeshi womuntu siqu, uzofuna ukuthi izingubo zakho zibonise okwenzayo, uyanezela.

4. Shintsha umehluko. "Ukwengeza umehluko omncane ngokuvamile kwenza izithombe zibukeke zisezingeni eliphezulu," kusho uPierce.

5. Khetha umbala. Ngokungafani nezithombe ezimnyama nezimhlophe, umbala uxhumana nempilo namandla, uWilliams uyachaza. "Umnyama nomhlophe bangazizwa bethandana," esho. "Ingakuguga futhi, ngakho-ke kubi ikakhulukazi uma ungumsebenzi osekhulile."
