Is it worth the being honest in an exit interview if they ask you why you’re leaving? Obviously in a constructive and non aggressive manner.

In my personal opinion, as long as it's worded in a constructive way, it's a good thing to do. Even though I assume that my supervisors know what's going on in their department/company, that isn't always the case. As you leave for a better opportunity, you can also give them an chance to grow into a better organization for the friends and co-workers you're leaving behind. That is how I've always done it, and I'm still able to get good referrals from past employers.

I understand the urge to man but honestly none of these people give a shit about you or what you think. The fact is we’re just human leverage they use to make money. I’ve never met a manager once who has given a fuck about me at all and instead they’ll just use your feedback as something like “he’s entitled or weak or something like that”

You have 0 upside and lots of downside. I've given honest feedback before and while cathartic, was probably not the best move in hindsight

On one hand, I feel like I need to have some closure on why but at the same time it’s pointless and I feel like it could do more harm than good

Depends what “honest and constructive” means. If it’s moaning, no. If it’s personality clash, no. If it’s well reasoned supported with evidence of an actual occurrence (more than once) why not.
It’s an exit meeting, not therapy, or an opportunity for “closure”.
If you’re so bent out of shape about working there, don’t say anything, or a simple “personality fit” is suffice. If it’s more money for the same job elsewhere where, say so.
Remember, they’re not leaving, you are, and it’s not a question of “who is to blame”.

This is perfect

No. It sounds like a good idea, but no. Be polite and succinct.

I have a friend who was let go a few months into his first job after college (reason: the manager felt like he wasn't grasping the training content to the level that was expected). He's worried about if he should put the experience on his resume anyway, if he does will recruiters ask why he had such a short time at this place, and what will recruiters think if he explains he was let go. What are some things recruiters expect from candidates in this situation to continue considering them?

Does HR reference check multiple candidates after final interviews or should I expect an offer once my references check out?
