Over 10 years ago (wow did time fly), I had a Rails-based site that could convert any YouTube channel to an RSS feed with audio streamed as MP3. This wouldn't be necessary today, but back then I couldn't afford an unlimited data plan, which is why I created this thing mostly for myself.
I demo'd it while being interviewed for a software role at an NPR station. They were impressed because my project added pre-roll audio to every clip and supported scrubbing, which are features they worked on for their site and app.
So yeah, I'm pretty sure that helped me get hired.
