We, hiring folks, aren't limited to just that anymore. There's github, linkedin, hn/reddit posts, random google stalking, etc.
I can find a lot about you, your attitudes, opinions, ability to communicate, style, etc. that, or you for whatever reason (paranoid, on the lam, aren't passionate) have zero online presence).
The face to face interview is mostly to confirm or refute what I've already learned about you.

- tom_b 15y agoI am a strong believer that hackers need a portfolio of work for potential employers. I am not convinced that such a portfolio must exist in an online and easily discoverable package for potential employers. Having a strong and trusted personal network is probably a stronger signaling system. Of course, having both a meaningful online presence and a strong referral network is best.
