Adding a photo of yourself on your profile can help businesses

“put a face to the name” and appear trustworthy.

Profile pictures tips:

• Photos should be clear and of your face (not a full body picture)

• Avoid wearing hats, sunglasses, or anything else that might

conceal your appearance

• Dress professionally, preferably business casual. Collared shirts

and blouses portray professionalism and competence

• Having a friend or family member take a picture of you instead

of uploading a webcam photo or a “selfie”

Oftentimes, businesses do not have the physical resources necessary to complete technical jobs. Consequently, they can filter their results when searching for freelancers to only display field technicians with the necessary equipment.

Whether it is a screwdriver, cable tester, or a 10-ft ladder, these assets can make a huge difference in how much work you receive.
