Rikunabi NEXT, doda & Mynavi Resume Photo Sizes (2026)

9 min readUpdated: 8/16/2026

Photos for Rikunabi NEXT, doda, Mynavi Tenshoku and En Tenshoku are typically 420×560 pixels or 450×600 pixels (3:4 aspect ratio), in JPEG or PNG format, under 2MB. Upload screens differ between services, but the file they ask for is close to identical.

Unlike a paper resume, a web resume specifies its photo size in pixels. This article covers the specs service by service first, then the workflow from a smartphone shot to an upload-ready file.

Photo Size by Job Service — Quick Reference

Common published guidelines for each service. If your application screen shows a specific requirement, follow that instead.

ServiceRecommended pixelsAspect ratioFile format
Rikunabi NEXT420×560 or 450×6003:4JPEG / PNG
dodaaround 420×5603:4JPEG / PNG
Mynavi Tenshokuaround 420×5603:4JPEG / PNG
En Tenshokuany 3:4 image3:4JPEG / PNG
OpenES (Rikunabi)450×600 (600 high × 450 wide)3:4JPEG / PNG

Every service uses the same 3:4 ratio, so a single 3:4 file can be reused across all of them.

Photo Specs by Job Service

Upload screens and wording differ between services. Here is what each one asks for, and what to watch when replacing an existing photo.

Mynavi Tenshoku web resume photo

On Mynavi Tenshoku, you upload a facial photo to your Web resume. The recommended size is around 420×560 pixels (3:4), in JPEG or PNG. After uploading, check the preview — if the framing is off, adjust the size and margins and re-upload rather than reshooting.

Rikunabi NEXT web resume photo

Rikunabi NEXT profile and Web resume photos also target 420×560 or 450×600 pixels (3:4). Before uploading, confirm the face is clearly centered and the background is a solid color.

doda photo size

Photos registered on doda use the 3:4 aspect ratio, with around 420×560 pixels as the guideline. Since job-changers often reuse one photo across several services, preparing a single 3:4 data file up front saves time.

En Tenshoku facial photo

En Tenshoku's facial photo upload also expects 3:4, JPEG/PNG. If you already have a 3:4 ID photo prepared for another service, it will work here too.

OpenES (Rikunabi) photo size

OpenES is the web entry sheet provided by Rikunabi. The recommended photo is 450×600 pixels, and a single upload covers applications to multiple companies. For the full spec and upload steps, see the OpenES photo guide.

Web Resume vs Paper Resume Specs

If you also need a printed resume, it helps to see both standards side by side.

ItemPaper resumeWeb resume
Size30mm × 40mm (JIS standard)420×560 px or 450×600 px
Aspect ratio3:43:4 (same)
Tolerance36-40mm × 24-30mmVaries by service
File formatPrintJPEG or PNG
File size—Under 2MB typically
Resolution—300dpi+ preferred

The units differ, but the 3:4 ratio does not — so one source photo serves both paper and digital submissions.

Why Web Resume Photos Commonly Fail

Common issues when uploading a raw smartphone photo:

1. File size too large

Modern smartphone JPEGs are 5-10 MB. Most web resume forms cap uploads at ~2MB, so the file is rejected — or compressed automatically, hurting quality.

2. Pixel count doesn't match

A résumé photo is 3:4 (portrait), but phone cameras rarely capture exactly that ratio and pixel size — so the shot almost always needs cropping and resizing to match the spec.

3. Non-plain background

Furniture, curtains, or patterned walls in the background hurt the impression. The background needs to be replaced with a solid color.

4. Face position or size off-spec

Resume photos typically show the head — from the top of the head to the chin — as 70-80% of the photo height. A full-body smartphone shot has the face far too small.

Smartphone to Uploaded File — Three Steps

Step 1: Shoot

  • Use the rear camera (the front camera lowers quality)
  • Face forward, no hat, mouth closed, neutral expression
  • Natural light through a sheer curtain hitting the face from the front
  • Plain background (or shoot anywhere if you'll use a service that handles the background)
  • Distance: 50 cm to 1 m

Step 2: Process

  • Adjust face position and size (head occupies 70-80% of photo height)
  • Replace the background with a solid color
  • Resize to the target pixel dimensions (420×560 or 450×600)
  • Save as JPEG, under 2MB

This is the step that's actually hard to do manually.

Step 3: Upload

  • Upload via the job service's web form
  • If you get an error, recheck size, format, and file weight

Step 2 can be automated

Upload your phone photo to mynaphoto.jp and we handle face positioning, background replacement, pixel resizing, and JPEG output automatically.

A single purchase delivers both paper resume (30×40mm) and web resume (420×560 / 450×600) versions. The same photo also works for My Number Card, passport, visa, and other document types.

Pre-Submit Checklist

Before clicking submit:

  • Pixel count in spec (420×560 or 450×600)
  • File format JPEG or PNG
  • File size under 2MB
  • Aspect ratio 3:4
  • Background plain (white, light blue, gray)
  • Face clearly centered
  • Photo taken within the last 6 months
  • Dressed appropriately (suit is the safe default)

For a career change, consolidate to one file

Changing careers usually means registering with several job sites at once. You do not need a separate photo for each.

As covered above, Rikunabi NEXT, doda, Mynavi Tenshoku and En Tenshoku all share the 3:4 ratio. Prepare one 3:4 file and it works across all of them — no reshooting per application, no re-cropping per service.

If a paper resume is requested, the same source photo produces the 30×40mm print. Preparing one 3:4 file before you start applying makes every later application faster.

How recent should the photo be?

The usual guideline is within six months of shooting. If your job search runs long, or your hairstyle changes significantly, reshoot so the photo matches how you currently look.

Summary

  • Rikunabi NEXT, doda, Mynavi Tenshoku and En Tenshoku all want a 3:4 photo
  • Recommended pixels are 420×560 or 450×600, format JPEG / PNG, size under 2MB
  • Because the ratio is shared, one 3:4 file covers every job site
  • A paper resume (30×40mm) comes from the same source photo
  • Manual processing of size, background, and weight is what trips most people up

Frequently Asked Questions

What pixel size do web resumes in Japan require?

The standard is 420×560 or 450×600 pixels (3:4 aspect ratio). Rikunabi NEXT, Mynavi Tenshoku, and doda all accept photos in this range.

Are the print and digital resume photo specs different?

The 3:4 aspect ratio is the same. Print resumes use 30mm × 40mm; web resumes use 420×560px or 450×600px. Both can be made from the same source photo.

What file format does the web resume photo need to be?

JPEG or PNG, typically. File size should be under 2MB, with at least 300dpi resolution.

Can I use a smartphone photo directly?

Yes, if it meets the size, pixel, and file requirements. But the raw camera output won't match the spec — you'll need to crop, resize, and possibly replace the background first.

What's the photo size for OpenES (Rikunabi's web entry sheet)?

450×600 pixels is the recommendation. One upload covers applications to multiple companies.

Can mynaphoto.jp output photos suitable for web resumes?

Yes. The supported formats cover both print resume (30×40mm) and web resume (420×560 / 450×600) sizes. One purchase delivers both digital files.
