The portrait check

If your resume carries a photo, something should have measured it first.

Resolution, exposure, contrast, focus and how busy the background is: five measurements over the pixels, each one either fine or with the fix written next to it. Then a vision model reads the same image and writes up what a screener would notice.

It only ever talks about the photograph. Framing, light, background, dress, image quality, never the person in it, which is enforced in the prompt rather than left to chance.

Photo checks

58/100

620×620px in frame · measured on this device, before anything is sent

  • Resolution. 620px of the original in the frame. Prints cleanly.

  • Exposure. A little dark. Nudge the brightness up.

  • Contrast. Good separation between subject and ground.

  • Sharpness. Slightly soft. If you have a better-focused shot, use that instead.

  • Background. The background is busier than you are. Replace it with a solid colour or a blur.

The written read is the second half: one sentence you can act on, what already works, and the changes worth making, about the image, never about you.
