It depends.

Junior developers tend to need to prove themselves and the usually have side projects on Github to show off. So have some code in Github will show that you are a proactive person who likes coding, but there are many other factors that count. In my case, for a junior developer, I value a lot the personality and the passion for programming that they show in the interview.

Senior developers tend to have families and not a lot of time for side projects. So it is not so strange that they don't have side projects on Github.
