AI Recruiter Simulator for Developers

Mar 7, 2026 Developer Tools

About

When developers apply for jobs they usually send a portfolio link, GitHub, or resume.But the process is a complete black box.You never know:• if the recruiter opened your resume • which repositories they checked • what projects caught their attentionSo I built recruiter analytics for developer portfolios.It tracks:• profile views • repository clicks • resume open rate • viewer location insights • company type viewing the profileThe goal is to give developers a feedback loop similar to product analytics.Instead of guessing what recruiters value, you can see which projects or skills actually get attention.I wrote a technical breakdown of how the tracking works and the reasoning behind the design here:Curious to hear what the HN community thinks about adding analytics to developer portfolios.

assuming pixel tracking for pdfs and github api tokens for repo analytics
