Some employers, for some jobs, care more about conscientiousness. If it's universally true that "employers in real life care more about conscientiousness" then I would be interested to see some evidence.

(Perhaps you didn't mean to claim that it's universally true, but only that it's true on average or something. In which case, fair enough.)
