New Members Hyneman Posted April 21, 2013 at 07:18 PM New Members Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 at 07:18 PM Hello everyone I have a very short question that was bothering me today and I hope I can find some advice here. I am in the process of applying for a students exchange program (one year) at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, so a CV is required. Now there is a lot of controversy around the topic if one should add a picture to a CV or not. In my country it's generally expected (but not required), in the US for example it's normal to hand in CVs without a photo. How is the situation in China? Thanks.

ChTTay Posted April 22, 2013 at 04:49 AM Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 at 04:49 AM Don't you have any guidelines given by your University or Shanghai University? If not, why not phone or call either/both and just ask them?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gato Posted April 22, 2013 at 06:30 AM Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 at 06:30 AM The practice in China is that good-looking people tend to include a photo on their CVs. . There are many people who don't. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
