Free, no sign-up, no watermark. Your code never leaves this browser.
What works in practice
- One code only. Several codes on a CV look cluttered and confuse the reader.
- Label it plainly: 'Portfolio' or 'LinkedIn'.
- Keep it black or dark grey so it prints cleanly on an office printer.
Common question
Do recruiters actually scan them?
Some do, many do not. Treat it as a convenience and always include the written URL as well.
