Hired!

If you want to show off your GitHub contributions, and a lot of them are private, be sure to enable this setting.

#github

No sh*t im gonna write a script to do git pushes on random future dates. I HAVE BEEN BUSY. xD

[ecotree]

This guy was busy! Contributing to open source projects instead of working! Fired!

[speedyg.]

lmao i just enabled that and it didn’t change anything for me :/

[constantin-X]

If someone hires you based on that, that employer is an idiot

[xeric]

So basically, have experience even if you have no experience or you get no jobby

[MStoica]

Haha :)) funny video.
On a serious note: almost all companies I've worked for, were/are using self hosted solutions (Atlassian/Bitbucket) for security concerns. Not sure what those concerns were, but it was company policy "no code outside the company's self-hosted solution".

[LouisDuran]

LOL. Now let's have a look at those commits.

[powall]

Thanks so much! I’ve been working only on private repos for a while !

[Niaxe]

I imagine anyone thinking theyre so cleaver to fake their contributions will dig themselves a grave within this field

[Pacoparla]

I not only have almost not Github projects and much less contributions, but I don't include my Github profile in my resume. I guess job market here is different.

[JOELwindows]

Thancc for the tips. Enable show also private contribs to increase hire chance yess 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.

[frz_akbar]

Please don't judge by github activity, i'm using my company email and company github account so i can't show the activity 😑

[missakaiddamalgoda]

That settings change won't change anything in my profile. Because work done under the company has a separate account. And we do not use GitHub at all 😥

[itiswhatitis-yes]

Okay...now that...is a FLEX!!
Great job tho!

[murilokronbauer]

This doesn't even matter, some company's have their own private git, not all use github.

[NeseComedy]

Soon people will start generating random historical commits in a private repo because nobody can see them anyways

[joe_scotto]

If a company bases your worth as a developer off of your Github contributions... that's probably not a good company.

there is a 0-day for github to see private files, woks etc..

[Soniboy]

That’s pretty dumb. After 8-10 hours of work with a family and kids I’m not going to start contributing to open source. And pretty much 100% of code at work is strictly confidential. So am I not hired then?

[interstellarguy]

Plot twist. most of those are comments. 😂
