Even if you don't have source to show, if your back-end experience includes Node and you can converse about it freely and intelligently, I think you'll be fine.

Maybe you could write a blog post examining some confusing element of Node architecture? Or walking people though a simple JS MVC PoC? Basically just provide some sort of technical copy (on your resume/linkedIn/wherever)that shows you understand some of the basic features of JS development (closures, callbacks, prototypical inheritance - which sounds like its all old hat for you). With your other projects and experience, I think that would be enough.
- dlfw 12y agoThanks for your reply. If this was a permanent position instead of a contract, it will be a lot easier for me as I'll have to go through the interview stage, and I don't think I'll have any issues with that. However it seems that for a contract position I cannot even get an interview and I think it's understandable: if you have to choose between two developers for a 3 months contract and both have a strong CV but one of the two has some examples of work to prove his skills/experience, I'd personally choose the one with the examples (assuming that they're good) instead of hiring/interviewing the other just basing myself on trust. So unfortunately I need source code to show.
- CoreSet 12y agoWell then it sounds like you need to show source code ;)
