But it's not something that you can decide to do as a candidate. Without a picture, you're the oddball that doesn't get past the first screening.

Has this changed as hiring gets more international? When I started seeing CVs with pictures I thought it was really, really weird, but I soon realised it was just the norm in some countries.

I still think CVs with _pie charts_ are pretty weird, tho...

FWIW, I'm with you on pie charts. :)

That is only true when everyone else includes a picture. As others said it is great in the US that nobody includes pictures on their resume.
