This is great advice.

Unfortunately, most people you’re going to encounter don’t have the depth or maturity to be good interviewers.

Some do though, and they know the truth. There is rarely a job in the world where everything is positive. If you can communicate the negatives in a way that I can understand, empathize with, and that demonstrates your ability to handle it with grace, maturity, and humility, I would probably value that more. At the same time, if you’re someone that harbours a grudge over it, like if someone decided against your advice and you’re bitter over it, I’ll take notice too.

Basically, you need to be a team player, but not an automaton. If we wanted that, we have AI now.
