Frequently asked questions
Why does Naukri reject my photo?
Naukri.com rejects photos over 100KB or those not in JPEG/JPG format. Use this tool to compress your photo to under 100KB and ensure it saves as JPEG. Dimensions of 200×230 pixels are recommended for Naukri profile photos.
Does compression reduce photo quality?
At 100KB, a typical passport-style photo will compress to about 75–85% JPEG quality — the difference is invisible on screen. This tool shows a before/after preview so you can verify quality before downloading.
Can I use a PNG photo?
Yes — upload your PNG and the tool will automatically convert it to JPEG and compress to 100KB. Most portals require JPEG, so the conversion is usually helpful.
