Ask HN: How do I show recruiters my work on a platform for paid users only?

4 pointsby evexalmost 8 years ago
My last job was on a platform that is only for paid membership, so visitors can not see what&#x27;s inside.<p>Now I&#x27;m applying to remote jobs, and they ask what is a project that you&#x27;re most proud of,<p>and I can&#x27;t include it because its only for paid users,<p>how can I include my experience and prove it?

I&#x27;ve been a software developer for 20+ years, and almost all of my work has been on things I can&#x27;t show to potential employers. Tell a story about how you made an impact, use screenshots or video to supplement, but don&#x27;t try to &quot;prove&quot; anything. If they don&#x27;t believe you, then you don&#x27;t want to work there or you need to get better at telling your story.<p>(This doesn&#x27;t apply to designers, or people trying to get a job based on UIs they&#x27;ve created.)

Usually the only people who want work samples are freelance clients. I&#x27;ve never had a company recruiter ask me to show them a live demo of the work I&#x27;ve done. Just tell them what you did.

Take a screenshare video recording. Lots of extensions work.
