> How would you prove that you write the code long before getting hired by them?

Commit it to a repo somewhere.

This is what I did once. And it worked!

I have a 4 years 1 day old repo for code that was used in a job 4 years ago.

But I made sure to have a written agreement saying that the code I was bringing in was, within reasonable limits, still mine.

Clearly this doesn't include code that was produced during the job.
