For technical job seekers, your GitHub is your
portfolio. Make it recruiter-friendly.
📌 Add a README: Include a brief, clear
description for each project – what it does,
your role, and the tools used.
📌 Pin top 3 repos: Highlight the work you're
proudest of or most aligns with your target
role.
📌 Use GitHub Pages: Create a simple site to
visually organize your work.
💡 Pro Tip: Embed a short video demo (30-60
seconds) in each project README. This
shows your communication skills and ability
to present technical work clearly. It adds an
engaging personal touch that makes your
work more accessible.
