I still think this post is insightful, because it shows a subjective and presumably rather honest perspective on reviewing CVs. Sure, it's no big deal that a recent graduate points to an unmaintained GitHub profile with only assignment code on it. But these applicants make whoever is considering hiring them look at something that's both irrelevant and boring. I wouldn't blame them too much, though. They've probably heard somewhere that you should have code on GitHub and link to your GitHub account in your CV, and they lack the experience to take this advise with a grain of salt.
