Discussion on: The Best Thing for Your Resume

If I made contributions to a significant project on a regular basis I'd put it explicitely on the resume, but if it's just a few contributions here and there a link to your github is definitely enough imho.

it may be worth directing the employer to ones that are more relevant or impressive.

You can "pin" some repositories on your github page so they always appear first and on your github profile. Everyone should take the time to do it when looking for a job.

Also maybe go through your old pet projects that never went anywhere, have 0 tests and don't reflect your current skills and make them private.
