I am not sure.
Even when you apply at GitHub, they don't care at all how green your GitHub internet points are.

I'm a recruiter and I don't believe in those statistics, github stars, leetscore code,
those are all internet points that don't measure anything meaningful,
they have a very weak correlation with the ability to do the work the company needs her to do.

For me the best way to evaluate a developer is to have a look at the work he does.
Just like the best way to evaluate a musician is to open your ears and listen.
