From my experience as a software engineer with about 15 years in the business, I feel like most recruiters don't care about portfolio sites. Therefore just use the site to express yourself.
Depends on the recruiter; at my company all engineering HMs are ex-engineers or have background in engineering - ideally with specific relation to the roles they look for. Same with HR, Accounting, CS, etc.
Something for Prasoon: You don't need to actually light anything if the camera is positioned statically. Bake the lighting onto the assets and remove all the actual light rendering. That should massively improve performance.
You are right. I had special links and QR codes in CV and 1% from sent CV visited my website. Even those inviting me to interview didn’t open the link.
@@idosuranta4028 If you created it yourself, you can counter of visits in database and increase it every time when someone executed script on your website. I check IP and get city/country of visitor and send also email to me when someone visits my portfolio. If you don’t know how to code, then you can use Google Analytics for example. It usually requires copy/paste short script into your website. So it also requires some code changes. I use Laravel so I do all on my own. But Wordpress has plugins for Google Analytics for example.
10:41 easy explanations for everything... i am not the guy who made the site but if you have done these things it's pretty basic... the cookies for the languages are because he is saving the currently selected language in the cookies so that when you refresh the page or come back at a different point in time it still remembers what language you selected... and the website is scrolling because he has most likely set the background image with 100vh to cover the whole screen but didn't account for his navbar which is a common mistake
It's funny because I think most recruiters are going to prefer things in lightmode. Being obsessed with darkmode is a weird obsession of the over-teched
Honestly, my personal rating would be completely opposite to yours. The ones you rated high lack essential things for websites like CTA buttons and overall look bad. The low rated ones looked decent and had good layout. Also, I'd never rate a site based on creativity and aesthetics but not accessibility. I am not a recruiter, but if I were one, I'd look mainly for that in a developer, they aren't designers their job is to make thigs accessible and performant. Not to mention you didn't even do lighthouse test. Not a hate, just my personal views.
The matrix guys got so many skills that i even doubt its possible🤣🤣🤣does he just go and learn the basics and check on his list that he's a professional?😂
Bro the last one is my personal favorite 😍. After seeing this clip I tried to search how to make one but I couldn't fine any good video or material. If he personally made it then I don't know who else is going to beat it.😅
Search olivier larose youtube channel you can see such animations.,and you can especially see most of the effects in the last website where he recreated a portfolio website.happy learning..🤗
An Idea for Nike Suputra: Have small icons for the tech you used in a line above the projects and highlight the respective icons when people hover a project.
2:40 I would deduct several points in the "hireability" category because almost every single line is written entirely in lower case and contains grammatical flaws. In my opinion, this is simply not acceptable on a portfolio page that is supposed to show you at your best.
@@colecube8251 Grammatical flaws is not the correct term, but rather flaws in relation to appropriate expression, my bad. But what I mean is that, for example, "creating content on everything web dev, ui and ai" could be better phrased as "Content creation for all things web-dev, UI, and AI related". You're working on a professional website here, not a side project you show your friends on the weekend. That being said, what makes lack of use of proper English modern and techy? And even if that were the case, he's being inconsistent by uppercasing the acronym for content management system, for example, but only lowercasing software as a service.
I like your videos and the effort you put in them, but the chat above your picture is big and distracting, for those videos i like the view to be as big as possible to see as much as we can from the sites you are viewing.
2:50 says he would like to know where you live, things that would be in an ‘About me’ 4:18 says he doesn’t even look at those sections.. whole video is a contradiction to himself
As a backend pythonic, i would like to have my own portfolio without hiring a frontend dev , i have two eyes and none of them are for UX , i suck at colors and i am purely a DL ENGINEER recently graduated. Would it be okay to build a messed up site and still expect to get hired??????? 😮
if your projects are good enough UI does not really matter, just go for a simplistic HTML page with barebones CSS mabye just for font colour or changing the font
If you wanted people to trust you on design it might be important to be unique but if you just want a decent site why not find a portfolio you like and copy the design exactly? Unless it’s a big company with a legal department these aren’t exactly copyright protected (even big companies if you’re not stealing their trademarks it probably doesn’t matter). You can pull the html and css from browser dev tools after finding one to model from. Might need some finagling to translate it to back into styles and structure for the next components or whatever front end code you’re doing but getting it pixel perfect to the site is more engineering than design anyway. I feel like most portfolios are stylistically a bit cookie cutter anyway so even if you didn’t copy directly chances are you’d end up reinventing a very similar wheel
I have no idea on the technical details and difficulty of these sites, but they all felt exactly the same to me except for the 3d room and the matrix one. Those were cool. Of course, I'm also the type of person that likes sites like hurricane electric's website (except for that spinning globe) and gets really irritated at full stack because it implies that you know how the underlying infrastructure works. With HE's site, the information is there. There's no smoothed over corporate look at how fancy we are bullshit. It just does its job. So yeah, I don't think my opinion is worth much in web development.
excuse me but what is this bullshit? you just gave random points in hireability without even looking at their projects? do you think people hire you judging by the colors on your portfolio or what? lol
"passionate developer with a knack for problem solving" is probably the most overused phrase in "about me" sections on websites and social media profiles. It's also the default chatGPT response to "generate me a developer about me description". No reason to hire you if you are just like everybody else.
I just subbed. Idk why am not, I've been watching your shorts for a long time LOL
bro got so mad that he was rick rolled
From my experience as a software engineer with about 15 years in the business, I feel like most recruiters don't care about portfolio sites. Therefore just use the site to express yourself.
I think the last one that you loved, a recruiter wouldn’t realize how cool it was.
That's why he is a recruiter, he knows better

Trust me, I would

I feel like recruiters probably are not looking at portfolio sites at all maybe an engineer interviewer
Yeah, I really like looking at peoples websites but I doubt your average HR person knows what’s going on
You are right. I had special links and QR codes in CV and 1% from sent CV visited my website. Even those inviting me to interview didn’t open the link.
@@abogdzie how can we check how many people visited our website?

yup that's definetely what happened
yea but im also pretty sure the website was made using Caard
I'm finishing my portfolio today/tomorrow.
Good to hear these ways of thinking.
You can do it!
omg....my portfolio surely doesn't stand a chance...bro wasn't clickbaiting, the video title is 100% accurate

Just Watched the full stream vod. This is useful for Artist's portfolio too!
They're not bad developers, They just don't know Designing.

Bro gave an 8 for aesthetics to a website with black background and white text and gave 3 points for aesthetics on the matrix themed site 💀
The matrix guys got so many skills that i even doubt its possible🤣🤣🤣does he just go and learn the basics and check on his list that he's a professional?😂
You gave a one page website with a black background and 15 white text links a rating of 8 for aesthetics.
I actually don't think I can watch anymore.

what grammatical flaws? Also all lowercase is a common trick to make things look modern and techy. I have no idea why

@@Manker00 yeah I agree the phrasing is weird... also I have no idea why all lowercase is techy, I've just seen it on tech websites and similar things
8:42 "this looks like I am buying an Apple Watch" XD
In the creativity section, did i really saw Ramayana Anime 😂❤
10:57 "other sexy languages" bro whatttt 😂
17:35 it is not public anymore lol good for you
Currently working on my portfolio site, once I finish I might send to Anthony for review LOL
saw mine on the excel sheet below the ones you reviews here, are getting a part 2 that continues on from where you left off? or new submissions?
I like your videos and the effort you put in them, but the chat above your picture is big and distracting, for those videos i like the view to be as big as possible to see as much as we can from the sites you are viewing.
Security reasons they wont go on sites.. because it could be a vulnerability issue.. malware.. physing and so on.
Awesome stuff!.
Glad you enjoyed it
2:50 says he would like to know where you live, things that would be in an ‘About me’ 4:18 says he doesn’t even look at those sections.. whole video is a contradiction to himself
Thats helps a lot! Thanks
Glad it helped!
11:05 freaky ahh system engineer
I am 11 and have my own js framework
Bullshit

just go for something simplistic

the aldovilardy one was just using a free template site.. lol
10:04 looks like an HTML5 Start up website. Like exactly like it.
the portfolio at 11:00 is a full template!
I have no idea on the technical details and difficulty of these sites, but they all felt exactly the same to me except for the 3d room and the matrix one. Those were cool.

I think the most annoying thing is the live stream chat on your screen blocking the video
Man was too generous with those shitty websites
If that's shitty would love to see your websites let's see how much of a champ your are.
hello jared guy
Now show us your portfolio, Anthony...
the undergrad is from my college
I am working on my own resume
bro, can you add the doc sheet in the link which you provided initially having more than 100 links. it is very useful to me. please bro.
15:00 if he is specialist at all arias 😮
I had like 30 of those when i was in high scholl... before i actually got a job XD
Wait I've seen you on tiktok
Just in case someone haven't said it: recruiters are full of S. 1 min to read an about me text is long? BS
bro actually got rick rolled
Where can I post my portfolio to get it roasted?
we got a volunteer!
You said "like" 215 times in this video
recruiter will not talk like u
The guy at 5:21 just copy pasted James Smol intro to svelte work and didnt even change the links lmao.
15:30 isnt all-rounder is better?
8:38 or maybe it's a scam lmao
Camera shake is obnoxious.
