I'd love to hear your experience around this and what sector or jobs this assisted, because more data is great.

But in my experience across 25+ jobs ranging from startups to fortune 500/250/100...I have never encountered a hiring process that would care about this.

I would love to be proven wrong though.

    We do look at GH history and activity - can't say, out of about 50 candidates in the past two months that I reviewed, have any meaningful activity on GH.

    Not saying I am proving you wrong, but finding a candidate that has anything to show publicly is hard. Hell, even I, having a very well paying job, have much to show off publicly. I can, however, share my personal stuff. I've got tons of opened issues tho 🤣
