Alternatively I see people publishing their "creativity" as virtue signalling nothingness. I did a freelance job for someone and they asked to see a portfolio.

Alternatively I see people publishing their "creativity" as virtue signalling nothingness. I did a freelance job for someone and they asked to see a portfolio. I said I can't even divulge the nature of the projects I did for various banks let alone send you screenshots of it because me having screenshots would indicate a breach of contract. Ask me anything about the tech you want to implement. I got the gig. I've also seen "vibes" hiring of people with a good rep in various communities and it doesn't work. Those people are generally awful to work with and lack any desire to compromise
