Had Github for 3 years but I left it empty because I never knew how to use it and what to populate it with. Recently, beginning of the year, I've been posting all my college assignments and as you said, version control with some side notes highlights what you're learning during each project. Now I'm getting job offers via LinkedIn from different companies, all commenting on my college projects. Loving this video and I'd love to see more to be honest
Hey Jay, great video I never thought of github like that. as you said in your video, please do more videos like this one it would help me and alot of others to gain employment in IT. Hope to see more like this because I am having an awful time finding someone to give me a chance. Keep it up I like all your content I use it alot to figure things out.
Jay, Awesome video! I took you advice the last time we spoke. I'm still trying to figure out how to use GitHub. But I made the account and started exploring. I have found a lot of useful groups on subjects that I have encountered during my Linux studies. Please would you continue to do more videos like these? Everytime I feel like I hit a brick wall, one of your amazing videos picks me back up. Very inspirational. Please and thank you!
I was learning how to stream on youtube and etc. At my past job we needed to stream live video at the last minute due to someone double booking the council chambers. I hesitated to say that I knew since I would be the "go to" guy. I don't want to add more duties unless there is more $$. I made an exception and helped out my employer and state "This one time I can help but its not in my duties." They were happy then it was "Can you do that one more time" I declined and suggested I was not a professional. Then I left the company. Yes, learn something for yourself above all. Keep your curiosity going. But also remember don't give out your talent for free to employers if they are not willing to cough up some dough. I enjoy this channel and thoroughly enjoy sharing my knowledge with others as they shared with me. Paying it forward. But not for employers who want more out of you for not much pay.
Hey there Jay! Really enjoyed this video, would love to see more videos on the subject, I could really use some tips when it comes to the hiring process! Keep it up!
That's such and nice idea man thanks for the video! I've been busting my ass trying to soak up as much information from famous Professor Messer channel, and i realized that what was i essentially doing while studying i was also transcribing/translating (english it's not my first language) his whole A+ video series,and i thought to myself "Man so many jobs listing are asking for note taking abilities and passion for the job, if i could only point them to this behemoth of a file that i'm making just for my self it would sure prove that 1st i am quite capable of creating outstanding notes 2nd i am serious about making a career in IT and i'm willing to put the work for it and 3rd that my english skills are indeed advanced" and this github idea gives me the platform to do just that! so again thanks for sharing this it will help me alot.
Hey Jay, I liked the video. The only thing I would have added is some examples of github profiles youve liked, or how you organize your notes. Your content is great. Keep it up!
Good stuff Jay. Don't forget the super secret readme that you can create with the repo name of the GitHub profile name and change the profile page for a even more polished GitHub profile.
Hey Jay, great idea to use GitHub as a portafolio, I really interesting in getting an IT job related to linux. I would have just liked to see some examples of how to create the portfolio. Thank you!
actually, I made another Github account for training before making my final one because I was afraid that managers may see my previous mistakes or spaghetti code.
When I worked for a very large IT company. I was told anything I wrote, even a 2 line bash script, potentially belonged to the company. They weren't keen on OS.
Will check out your git tutorials as I've found from my few visits, there are layers of complexity and uses that seem awesome, but where to start daunting. I'm also Newbe Sketchup for build projects. Perhaps that would also be good to post as I build out my industrial shop, and renewable energy systems?
Great stream, as always. I appreciate the level-headed approach you take to the news and the markets. A lot has changed and that's on everything but the truth is I don't even care much about bullish or bearish market anymore because Mr Richard Scote got me cover as I am comfortably making 1.5B T C monthly...
Hey - I've been hearing about Richard for a long time now. Started during the pandemic and I've heard of how accurate his signals is.. I really do appreciate hearing your advice and feel that it is genuine
Hub repo just to have their own copy of the code. I remember one guy who forked several of my repos, over and over as I made updates, over several weeks. I think finally he gave up. Me, I make copies with “git clone” to my own PC. I also use Git
Hub to host copies of some custom Emacs and login shell setups. This way I can easily use “git clone” at a customer’s place to put them on a machine that I am to work on there.

Please do more of these videos. I'm considering a career transition into Linux -right now-, so any and all advice in that regard would be a huge help.
These type of career videos are great.
They do help as much as the tutorials ones.
Please keep making them. Thank you!

It could be really beneficial to many people to make more videos like this. Especially since you were part of the process of hiring people.
Good stuff Jay. Don't forget the super secret readme that you can create with the repo name of the GitHub profile name and change the profile page for a even more polished GitHub profile.
Thank you. It's awesome idea. I never thinked about GitHub as part of portfolio. I will glad to hear more tips about this subject.
Hey Jay, great idea to use GitHub as a portafolio, I really interesting in getting an IT job related to linux. I would have just liked to see some examples of how to create the portfolio.
Thank you!
Jay thank you again for an awesome informative video as always.
You are a great teacher.
Respect for you.
Hi Jay. I never really thought of Github as anything other than a source code repository. Good tips here, thank you.
Please keep doing this type of stuff
Nice video and tips Jay. It would be nice if you make a video on how to continue moving from Linux Admin to DevOps. Thanks 👍
Any advice on career improvement for Linux (entry-level, SysAdmin, etc.) is awesome and greatly appreciated!!!
Really informative video! 👍🏾 thanks for this
actually, I made another Github account for training before making my final one because I was afraid that managers may see my previous mistakes or spaghetti code.
Hey Jay, i love the quality of videos you make. Just a little suggestion, you videos are all in monotone, if you can please improve that.
Yes, please keep doing!
Thanks for the advice. Regards from Mexico.
Great information!
Great video
Didnt one of those big brains at redhat once post all his private keys on his public github?
Mistakes happen lol
Hi Jay, what 's the best practice when it comes to putting a GitHub portfolio link on to a resume?
Pls put all your knowledge out here!!!!!! Any and all tips are needed!!!

Presumably that applies only to things you do on company time. Anything you do on your own time is yours.
NIce Video, pls make video like this
Sticking with sourcehut and mercurial
Being a fresher I am searching for Job.

Tip to prospective Git
Hub users: learn how to use Git first. Some people seem to be under the impression that they should do a “fork” of a Git
Hub repo just to have their own copy of the code. I remember one guy who forked several of my repos, over and over as I made updates, over several weeks. I think finally he gave up. Me, I make copies with “git clone” to my own PC.
I also use Git
Hub to host copies of some custom Emacs and login shell setups. This way I can easily use “git clone” at a customer’s place to put them on a machine that I am to work on there.

I shouldn't be commenting on this account but Holy Shit, Holy Shit, Holy Shit.... This is a great idea
