The resume with the picture is very clean and visually different. However, I feel like it could introduce bias (although no one will admit it, of course) by including it. One of those conflicts between really caring about quality and the clash with the corporate world.

First impressions are important. They will likely see them when they come in for the real interview which makes the bias still possible. I had a mentor that got refused because he didn’t fit their image for the role.
