What does Developer story do for me (as opposed to regular bulleted resume format, including that used by SE careers site before) if I'm NOT Rear Admiral Grace Hopper, but a regular, boring, non-opensource developer who is not a unique superstar in my field?
Especially if most of my career - perhaps outside SO participation - has been in a closed-sourced world, so I don't have any way to link to exciting libraries I developed, or to wonderful projects I spearheaded.
You are also what you've worked on; what you've written.
(bluefeet♦'s D.S. Meta post)
Yes, I once single-handedly wrote an ETL product which allowed my company to avoid paying licensing for Informatica's ETL and increased the company's ETL developers' productivity 10x. No, I can't show my work. It's proprietary corporate code.
Yes, I have improved a complex query's LIO performance by 96%, which comprised 3% LIO reduction of a central DB server of a large company. No, I can't put a link to Github changes, without getting arrested (or, worse, fired) for posting company code outside company's VCS.
So, short of including my SO rep, which I already have on my resume, what can I include on my Developer Story to make it any more exciting or useful than my regular bulleted resume or Careers CV? What comparative benefits does Developer Story offer me as a developer and what can I do to realize those benefits?
