This question already has an answer here:



  • Should I include information about my reputation on professionally-relevant Stack Exchange (or other Q&A) sites on my resume?

    2 answers



I am related to IT domain(Web development) so is it ok to mention stack activity in resume?



Currently I am mentioning it in my resume under skills and hobbies section like this -




•Technical blog writing and Q/A at technical web forums during my
spare time specially on stackoverflow sites and codecademy.




What are the pros and cons of using it? Is it sounds professional or I should remove it ?



I am looking for a job now, so concerned about these things.

    Let's look at it this way: your prospective employer may learn a few things about you, and these won't necessarily be positive. For one thing, your Q/A ratio, and that your reputation on SO is 0.9 milliSkeets.

Your Stack Overflow profile gives potential employers a chance to look at you actually coding, as well as your ability to solve problems and seek help. If you have any amount of reputation there say put it under hobbies as you have already with either a URL alongside your contact info so they can look at your profile directly or a bullet point under "Misc"/"Other" with your rep.
