I as an employee responsible for recruitment to some degree in our company find it always much more pleasant if an applicant provides his GitHub account unrequested. Showing some contribution or even own projects on GitHub gives me a much broader view of the applicant before even considering an invitation to an interview.

Since GitHub is the de-facto standard for many software projects it makes sense to have at least something on GitHub. I am fine with links to sourceforge, bitbucket, etc. as well.

I'm pleased when I'm asked for sample source.

My gripe is that the request is specifically for "GitHub". I have come to believe that most of those who request my GitHub, do not understand the difference between a GitHub and a hubcap.
