Do I really need to add featured photos?

Yes! Featured photos give clients a glimpse of who you are outside of work. Make sure that the photos you submit represent your personality. 

A photo that grabs the client’s attention can tell them about who you are as a person and what skills you have. It can also get them interested in your profile. Having a featured image also makes it more likely that the client will click on your profile, view or read the content, and then share it with others. There is a clear benefit to sharing your profile with clients, which in turn boosts your chances of being hired.

Also, it's important to remember that when you choose the featured images for your profile, you should post at least three photos that show off your unique qualities and tell a story about you outside of work. These can be images of any trophies or accolades you've won, pictures of your family or team, or pictures of you engaging in a pastime or activity that brings you delight. Photos of good quality are also recommended.
