If someone took the time to look through my GitHub contributions then pitched me with a job relevant to that work I would absolutely consider them. That's exactly the kind of recruiter I would like to work with.
If it's obviously just a bot scraping emails and sending generic job requests, that's very different.

- jamesfinlayson 7mo agoYeah this - I got one of these emails someone sniffing around my GitHub not that long ago and it wasn't immediately obvious that it was a scammy recruiter, so I responded to sound out if they were actually interested in one of my projects. Got the same generic response about let's work together on something so I didn't respond.

- keiferski 7mo agoYeah I mean as a marketing tactic to sell your product. An employer / recruiter offering you work this way is different.
