>That’s why more people are showcasing their work through portfolios. And that’s what recruiters actually look for.
Not sure where this assumption is coming from. Most recruiters are looking for consistent work experience with reputable companies. Sure portfolios help but it's not even remotely on the same spectrum.
>I dont know how people are coming up with such juicy and vanity metrics but mostly are noise.
It's really not noise at all. If you actually use these ATS platforms from the hiring side, you'll see first hand how they've all doubled down on AI filtering. Candidates are directly experiencing increased difficulty in getting past the initial screening stages.

I guess you are missing the whole startup world, talents less than 5 years into the industry and hackers who grind many side projects and Generalists Maybe what you say is relevant to SMBs and enterprise hiring. Most ATS are designed for SMBs and enterprise hiring. I guess then Startups looking for Generalists has to mostly fallback to Google forms and HR emails for hiring.
- Peroni 7mo agoThe startup world has been my exclusive focus for almost twenty years now so I stand by my position. Granted if you have fewer than five years of experience then it's harder to demonstrate value on a CV and that's certainly where a portfolio of work helps however your question was framed much more broadly.
