    Yes but do the interviewers really care about that?

    It depends . But i think you should put your articles in your CV. This shows your interest in that filed. Anyway the CV will be with more information, which is good. Even if they don't read it :)

      I suggest you link us to the articles in question, and tell us the level of the job you are pursuing. That will make this less subjective.

        Some do, some don't. Some read them, some don't. I've included them to give an impression of my work, before anyone can ask for "codez" from previous employers. If that question rises (can we see your code from the previous company), the interview ends then and there.

          As others have said: if they are yours, then there is no reason why not. But...check them first, and make sure they are examples you are universally proud of (and that includes any other comments you may have made here. If you link to one you are happy with, then that identifies you to the CV reader who can look at your other articles / messages / comments. If there is stuff you wouldn't want them to know...

            Keep in mind that your CP user name will be attached to all of the articles you've written. That user name will also be attached to every forum post and comment you've made. If you are will be using your contributions to Code Project for your resume, make ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN that you never, ever post anything that you would not want the Human Resources department of your dream employer to read.

                  It's impossible for everyone of us who isn't working on an open-source project. Banks aren't an exception here. The sourcecode isn't part of the "banking secret", is it?

                        Absolutely! While not something from CP, I have two publications that my name is listed as an author in my CV with links. Plus notable awards I might have earned. If you are going to add anything, make sure it is something you are proud of and relevant to the job which you are applying. I tailor my CV for each job i apply for, removing things that may not be important. As others have said, make sure if you link your article, you haven't posted any other comments you wouldn't want a potential employer seeing. It is akin to an employer search for your Facebook profile, which they will do. If you list awards, do NOT list the fact you lettered in and were captain of a sports team in middle school. One of the resumes we received was at least a dozen pages long and had that listed as a past leadership position.

                          In that case it might make sense to publish those articles on your own website :)

                              I used to work for someone (I can't tell you who) where my security clearance level needed a security clearance on almost the same level to even know what level it was. Needless to say, back then, if I wrote a cheque, never mind any code, it was classified! Today I work for the medical profession and the security is almost as tight but there is only one level of security, the "don't tell anyone anything" level!

                              - I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

                                Why would you even need to ask this? Obviously if you have over 20 articles, it may make more sense to just link to your article listing URL or perhaps list the most recent 5 and then link to the listing URL.

                                        I used to work for someone (I can't tell you who) where my security clearance level needed a security clearance on almost the same level to even know what level it was. Needless to say, back then, if I wrote a cheque, never mind any code, it was classified! Today I work for the medical profession and the security is almost as tight but there is only one level of security, the "don't tell anyone anything" level!

                                        - I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

                                        Ok I get the need for security clearances and all, but

                                        isn't that a little silly?

                                          I met a guy once who couldn't ever tell anyone what he had been doing because there was no one left alive with the security clearance for him to be able to ask them if it was OK to talk about it now or not. :wtf:
