A clear portrait
Use soft daylight and a simple background. Make sure your face is easy to see. Avoid beauty filters, sunglasses and heavy editing.
Current photos in good light and a personal introduction are enough for a first impression. These tips help you prepare your profile step by step.

Use soft daylight and a simple background. Make sure your face is easy to see. Avoid beauty filters, sunglasses and heavy editing.
Stand naturally with enough distance from the camera. Choose simple, fully clothed clothing you feel comfortable in. A relaxed posture is enough.
A recent side portrait completes the first impression. Professional photography is not necessary. Do not submit nude or intimate photographs.
Describe your interests, experience and ambitions in your own words. No professional experience yet? Explain what you would like to explore and why.
Add public social profiles or your own website. A short introduction video is optional. Do not share someone else’s work or confidential material without permission.
Check your contact information and consent choices. Decide separately whether your profile and, where appropriate, your contact details may be shown to selected partners.
Photos: JPG or PNG, up to 12 MB per file. HEIC requires enabled server support; otherwise export as JPG. Optional video: MP4 or WebM, up to 80 MB. Smaller files are generally easier to upload on mobile.
An initial introduction does not require intimate photographs, identity documents or bank details. When a request feels unclear or uncomfortable, ask questions before taking action.
