Passing job interview is a red herring because it teaches you that you said what people want to hear. It can be very different from being good at your work and a focus on it can create disfuncional professionals who know how to give the appearance of being good while being shit at what they do.

Not to sound excessively cynical, but that can help your career progression too.
For someone who likes to work at bullshit companies, absolutely.
