Not many people in this part of India (i.e. Northern part of India) are aware of Programming Sites, Specially the HR Guys. This Actual Word Quoted by HR Manager to me in my last Interview -
" So you wasting time in forums and writing article".:|and as usual I unable to clear Interview :) After that Interview, I stop posting my Resume to codeproject unfriendly company :^)."Opinions are neither right nor wrong. I cannot change your opinion. I can, however, change what influences your opinion." - David Crow

I think you are very talented and shouldn't bother about comments from stupid company's HR. That companies are not for you. It do helps a lot to say that you have written articles on technical subjects on various websites, but not that exaggerating it stating these are the lists of the articles and I am gold card memeber. Just mention a small point in extra activities about the same. Big companies used to follow the links you give them and will find on their own what were the articles and what's your techincal expertise. http://www.priyank.in/

For those who contribute articles: do you typically publish a list of your articles posted at CodeProject in your resumes, or do you provide a link to the page listing your articles? If so is there anyway in which we can make it easier for you in terms of a simpler link, or a different presentation, or some simple way to let prospective employers (or whoever you are looking to impress) see your credentials at CodeProject? cheers, Chris Maunder
Yeah I do mention. I have 2 articles up here and I mention both of them. Someone mentioned a similar incident earlier but this happened to me too. One of my works posted here was being used in a company where I went for interview. I came to know about that through one of my friends who was already working there.

I have a list of all my articles on my CV. The last time I walked into a company, I found that they were already using one of the tools I've published as part of their build process...:cool: Anna :rose: Riverblade Ltd - Software Consultancy Services Anna's Place | Tears and Laughter "Be yourself - not what others think you should be" - Marcia Graesch "Anna's just a sexy-looking lesbian tart" - A friend, trying to wind me up.

No I don't do any of that. However, if you're interested in making life easier on article authors, how about these suggestions: 1) Give the author the ability to delete off-topic threads attached to the article. 2) Do NOT allow unregistered people to vote, download or comment on an article. 3) Allowing the author to omit his profile from the article text so that the otherwise puerile little dickheads will vote the article instead of the author's politics. Those things would be damn helpful. ------- sig starts "I've heard some drivers saying, 'We're going too fast here...'.

nope. Primarily because the voting here is so suspect (more so if it's not a mainstream article where one person trying to get his article ahead of yours can account for a very large swing in the votes).

I have only one tech article to talk about, and I do list in my CV. I don't, however, give a link such as http://www.codeproject.com/cpp/complex\_declarations.asp. Rather, I say something like Published an article titled How to interpret complex C/C++ declarations at CodeProject.com I turn off the underline for the link, so it doesn't look ugly in print. But the link is blue in color, so whoever is looking at a soft copy will still know it's a link and can click it. And the same goes for my email address. :) Vikram.

I agree with comments.

I also discovered an ex-colleague (as in, we worked together more than 10 years ago!) was there, and learned that someone from my previous team had also had an interview there...

It might be easier for us if you allocate each of us a code which we can add to an article link as an innocent looking URL argument then have set it up so that any article linked with that code is tailored to appear to be written by the member associated with the code. Then we wouldn't actually have to submit anything, just select a few good, relevant ones from the top rated articles ;) Steve T
