I just had an interview with a corporate recruiter who told me I don't have enough contributions on github to be considered for their company. Most of the companies I've worked for did not use github linked to my personal account. The one company I worked at that did seems to have deleted/moved the majority of the work I did while there which was the bulk of my contributions. Do most developers work on lots of open source projects in their spare time and am I now years behind everyone else for not focusing on my profile?
Wtf… if you are really working at your day job on the company’s products, no one got time for open source.
That was my thought too. For the first few years of my career I dedicated almost all my time to improving, learning, working on side projects, etc... outside of work and I no longer have interest in doing that
Open Source is the communism f**k by those entitled GNU idiots. When other guilds like lawyers, doctors and financial folks build their moats these stupid programmers wanna provide free labor to capitalists. Unless you do not need to purchase blood sucking services, what the hell pushing the open source ideas to slave programmers?
A big no. Screw that company. Contributing to company repo is hard enough
