You got that right. You must have a lot of things to say in your resume, but depending on what you're looking for or interest in a job, you might want to highlight the ones related to your interest and tone down on the non-related ones.

For example, you have a degree in electrical engineering but you're keen in pursuing the programming side of it. So in your resume, you might want to highlight on the programming courses/projects you had in the past instead of your hardware projects.

My recommend is to not include your photo. This way you'll know they shortlisted you not because of your looks, but purely based on your qualifications.

If they still want to see your face, then they should arrange an interview. There you go, free interview over the other candidates.

... unless the job requires looks (e.g. modelling or whatever), then yes, include the photo. My opinion that is.
