In the interview that got me my current job, the manager brought in two developers I would be working with. One of them had found my GitHub repos where I had some small personal projects, so he was able to see some evidence that I knew what I was doing.
So that was useful, but I don't think it would have helped to have had anything more portfolio-ish than that.
