    For one, it can make a resume stand out from the other text-only applications. For another, a professional, smiling photo could add a pleasant personal touch.

    The above two reasons are from the applicant’s POV. From an employer’s viewpoint, since you mentioned accuracy and preciseness, how does a photo affect these factors?

And for those, who do not think that photo is imp, in that case please specify, how come your personal face to face interview is important? cant your interview be taken on skype or other apps and get yourself recruited?
