When to use this workflow

- You want a clean headshot without GPS metadata attached.
- You are starting a job search and need both photo and documents.

Tips
Tips for better results
- Use neutral clothing and a plain background when possible.
- Remove EXIF before uploading to employer portals if the portal accepts JPEG—use EXIF Metadata Remover on photo uploads separately.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Where is the cover letter step?
Open Apply for a job for the full merged workflow—cover letter, word count, and optional profile photo at the start.
Should I use Passport Photo Maker instead?
Use Passport Photo Maker for government ID rules. Profile Picture Maker is better for employer portals and LinkedIn-style headshots.
