Yeah. The skills aspect is important. That bespoke CMS/MVC product that you spent years working with... it's kind of worthless. Employers and recruiters have a list of requirements to tick before narrowing down the candidates.

Once you get to the interview and they want to look at the code from a project, then sure, it will help a lot - assuming you created it.
