I'm no fan of recruiters myself, but using ONLY GitHub can be short sighted. Not everyone contributes to open source. GitHub has yet to launch products for recruiters. Honestly ... that is a really tough space, and the top guys at GitHub need to figure out if they want to make that a real business or not, because a half hearted investment is not going to benefit anyone. I think there is some value in LinkedIn integrating with GitHub, but why not just more robust links? What's the value in showing recent checkins, when I can just click through to GitHub and see EVERYTHING? It's easy to blame LinkedIn here, but this was likely a mutually beneficial outcome agreed on by both GitHub and LinkedIn. LinkedIn didn't want to maintain the APIs GitHub uses; GitHub doesn't want to have to update its app. |
