Attaching the applicant's photo in a resume or cover letter is uncommon in the United States and the United Kingdom. If you are applying for a position in these countries, feel free to choose a template with no photo space.
In other countries, adding a photo is more optional than necessary. Therefore, if the job description or company website does not contain precise requirements for application documents, choose a design at your discretion.
However, keep in mind that the photo can be a crucial selection criterion when candidates' appearance matters, such as actors, TV presenters, fashion models, and so on, regardless of the country.
