Insurance Employers Don’t Want Job Seekers Pictures on Resumes but it’s Okay on LinkedIn
Our 2015 Insurance Industry Employment and Hiring Outlook asked 78 insurance companies if they think job applicants should put their photos on their resume (page 8). Not surprisingly, only 6% thought this was a good idea. When asked if why they feel that way is the concern with discrimination, one insurance human resource manager answered, “Absolutely not, because there are characteristics in a photo that could potentially lead to a discriminatory decision before the interview.”
