CV image tips
Use these before you upload or share the page.
A 150KB JPEG headshot at 80% quality is sufficient for most CV portals — larger files get recompressed by the platform anyway.
Resize portfolio images to 1920px wide before compressing; most recruiters view on laptops and extra pixels just waste the attachment budget.
Use the batch ZIP export to prepare all CV images in one pass — each file gets a skwish prefix so you can track which are optimized.
