What? What employer has ever looked at a potential hire's homework?

If you don't grade exams but grade homework, then homework just becomes a take-home exam...

I'm teaching an intro Web Development course at the University level right now. No exams, only projects and homework. All submissions in github, so it's likely some will be looked at!

I didn't suggest that an employer looked at homework. But now that you mention it, I have personally done that when it was made available on github.
