If someone shares a private git repo, they should not be hired, and in fact should be fired from their current job, and possibly sued. (Think Anthony Levandowski sharing Google lidar designs as an example of his work with Uber.)
This isn't promoting trust. This is a violation of trust.
- HugoDaniel 9y agoYes I agree with you but I was not making the point of sharing a repository you shouldn't share to a recruiter (I do own a few private repositories that I wouldn't mind sharing to recruiters). My point was that seeing code is not as mandatory for a recruitment as we currently make it so. I gave the comparison to management but it happens even in engineering areas. It is worth to know your candidate before asking to write a solution to an air conditioning problem in a whiteboard in 40 minutes when applying to a mechanical engineering position. Specially if your company never solves air conditioning problems.
