Saying "I don't know" is a sign of seniority for me.

It’s impossible to know all of the things, especially in Software Engineering. So not knowing something is no issue at all.

On the contrary, it shows me that you are self-aware and confident in yourself by saying that.

The same is true with admitting mistakes. It's a lot better when you acknowledge that you've been wrong as soon as you know.

And not try to hide it and hope that nobody will find out.

Nobody is perfect, we all make mistakes. Admitting them builds trust.
