That's a wonderful attitude. I'm the same. The stuff that's on my GitHub is there for me, I needed it and/or I wanted to contribute to it. It's not for visibility.
But with that I do feel that I've had a couple of jobs slip through the cracks. Not enough exposure.
- scarface_74 2y agoThe truth about not doing open source work and a personal GitHub profile is kind of lie. The department I worked for at AWS had a very easy to use open source approval process to open source work we did from scratch for a client as long as it didn’t have client information we could put it here after approval. https://github.com/aws-samples https://github.com/aws-samples I was able to legally/ethically fork all of the work I submitted (MIT Licensed) to my own profile after I left. But, no one cared or even looked at my open source profile. However, I was also a major contributor to a popular open source “AWS Solution” that was big in its niche. https://aws.amazon.com/solutions/ https://aws.amazon.com/solutions/ That did lead to two interviews and one job offer in 2023 year. Almost all of my projects and the “solution” are obsolete now. I was able to use most of them last year with some tweaking.
