Story

When developers apply for jobs they usually send a portfolio link, GitHub, or resume.

But the process is a complete black box.

You never know:

• if the recruiter opened your resume • which repositories they checked • what projects caught their attention

So I built recruiter analytics for developer portfolios.

It tracks:

• profile views • repository clicks • resume open rate • viewer location insights • company type viewing the profile

The goal is to give developers a feedback loop similar to product analytics.

Instead of guessing what recruiters value, you can see which projects or skills actually get attention.

I wrote a technical breakdown of how the tracking works and the reasoning behind the design here:

Curious to hear what the HN community thinks about adding analytics to developer portfolios.
