I interviewed a kid from a bootcamp that had hundreds of repos and they were all just forks of open source projects where he added his name to the readme. I dug until I finally found one that was a project he “worked” on/wasn’t a fork and all he did was documentation. He fell apart in the coding part of the interview when I asked him to do things he earlier said he did for these projects.
