How to Upload Your Uniform Photo

Photo Tips
- Stand in good lighting so we can clearly see your outfit
- Show the full outfit from head to toe if possible
- Make sure your face is visible in the photo
- Wear the actual uniform — don't submit photos of clothes on hangers
Photo Authenticity
All uniform photos are scanned for AI-generated content and digital manipulation. Photos created or altered using AI image generators, face-swap tools, background replacement, body or clothing editing, or any form of digital enhancement will be automatically rejected. All photos must accurately represent you and your uniform as they appear in person.
What If My Photo Is Rejected?
If your uniform photo doesn't meet the requirements, we'll let you know what needs to be fixed. Common reasons for rejection:
- Wrong color (e.g., navy instead of black)
- Missing required items (belt, tie, vest)
- Face not visible in the photo
- Photo is blurry or poorly lit
- Visible wrinkles or unprofessional appearance
- AI-generated or digitally altered images
Simply upload a new photo that meets the requirements and we'll review it right away.
Custom Uniforms
Some businesses have custom uniform requirements that differ from our standard types. If a shift requires a custom uniform, the specific requirements will be listed in the shift details. Follow those instructions and upload a photo showing you meet their requirements.
