      I recommend having a public portfolio. You needn’t have all your hobby code be public, but I think having source you’ve written available is an advantage.

      When I was doing interviews, I definitely looked at GitHub (etc.) profiles of they were listed on the resume. I even found at least one indirectly – either from their email or LinkedIn.

      I like to point people at my accepted patched to open source software (Git and a Haskell library).
