What Are ERAs Headshots?

ERAs headshots are professional portrait photos used in medical residency applications.

While we won't tell you whether it's advantageous to include a headshot, our AI headshot generator can save you hours of time and hundreds of dollars if you choose to include one.

How Does AI Generate ERAs Headshots?

1. Choose your backdrops and clothing: We offer a variety of options, with white backdrops recommended for medical residency applications.

2. Upload your selfies: Use existing photos or take new ones against a plain background with good lighting and a natural smile.

3. Download your favorite headshots: You'll receive multiple options to choose from, with at least one incredible profile-worthy headshot guaranteed.

What Are the ERAs Headshot Requirements?

According to the Association of American Medical Colleges, ERAs headshot requirements are:

File type: JPG/JPEG or PNG, Maximum file size: 150 KB, Maximum dimensions: 2.5inx3.5in, Maximum resolution: 150 DPI

How Can I Make My Headshot ERAs Ready?

If your ERAs headshot is larger than 150 KB, you can use an image compression tool like TinyPNG to make the file size smaller.

If you're unsure if the photo resolution or photo dimensions are correct, try opening the file up in MS Paint (Windows) or Preview (macOS).

For MS Paint (Windows):

To check the resolution:

1. Open the headshot in MS Paint

2. File - Properties (to see current resolution)

To change the resolution:

1. Click the 'Resize' option in the toolbar (it might be under 'Image' in some versions of Paint)

2. Change the horizontal and vertical dimensions to inches. For a 2.5x3.5-inch photo, set the width to 2.5 inches and the height to 3.5 inches

3. Make sure the 'Units' are set to 'Inches' and the 'Resample' option is checked

4. Adjust the 'Horizontal' and 'Vertical' resolutions to 150 pixels per inch (DPI)

5. Click 'OK' to apply the changes

6. Save the photo

For Preview (macOS):

1. Right click the image - Open With - Preview

2. Tools - Adjust Size

3. Change the values to your desired dimensions (2.5x3.5-inches) and resolution (150 DPI)

4. Ensure that the 'Resample Image' option is checked

5. Apply Changes

6. File - Save

I had a LOT of photos to choose from

I had a LOT of photos to choose from. Some were PHENOMENAL. I needed headshots for my website. I admit it was not perfect ... some of the photos had mismatched earrings, some just didn't look like me. BUT overall, I was able to choose more than enough. Serious, smiling, great outfits. It really was EXACTLY what I needed and a great timesaver!!

Incredible

Incredible. I know AI image generation has had quite a lot of success, but it has also spawned a lot of poor quality free options online. I was always disappointed by these. I finally decided to pay for one and I was impressed by how much better of an experience it was! Some of the images still looked quite AI-generated, some looked subtly different from me, but overall I was quite impressed and got at least a few usable ones.
