I can think of at least two employers who gave me the job because of my honesty when admitting to my ignorance of certain job-related knowledge during an interview. It's a really great trait for recent graduates, many of whom will nod along and say, "Oh yeah, I've used such-and-such before." My first two jobs out of college the boss told me after giving me the gig that a big part of me getting hired was that I didn't appear to be over-stating about my abilities and it was clear what they were getting by hiring me. So if anything, young developers should just remember to be honest and that you can't be expected to know everything right off the bat. Employers will appreciate the honesty.
