+1, I'll take one or two half-decent GitHub repos over well-know school/High GPA/Cool projects listed on your resume. By half-decent I mean: - Does it have a README that explains the project? - Does the code seem generally well-organized (not talking about linting) - Is it just copied from somewhere else? - Is it a cookie-cutter style project from one of your classes? I don't expect a commit in the Linux kernel or TensorFlow, just a small project that confirms that the candidate is not just listing all the technologies he heard of on his resume with no actual exposure. I know it's hard to get good projects, but that's exactly the point, I want to see some code because I know what you'll be doing at work is write code. Before I get pitchforked to death: this is not a make or break kind of signal, but if I have 20 new grads resume to pick from that's usually my approach.
