If you're hiring based on GitHub profiles, you're absolutely doing it wrong. I've seen plenty of total idiots with flashy GitHub profiles, and many -- if not all -- of the best coders I know have essentially nothing on GitHub.
A GitHub profile page is a strong signal only that you have a GitHub account. Any other use is strictly off-label.
