                  • Pro Tip for Getting Hired at GitHub

                    GitHub values evidence of impact over polished buzzwords. If you are applying, show how your work has solved real problems. For technical roles, this could be open source contributions, personal projects or documented case studies. For non technical roles, focus on outcomes, measurable results and how your work supported users or teams.

                    Also, GitHub places strong emphasis on remote collaboration. Highlight experience working asynchronously, across time zones or in distributed teams.

                  • Working at GitHub is not just about having the right skills, it is about aligning with a culture that values openness, collaboration and continuous learning. Whether you are a developer, writer, marketer or analyst, there is likely a role that fits your strengths.
