Indeed, I know of someone who applied for a job. He knows, or at least does a good impression of knowing a lot about the tech we use. I have to admit, I have reason to doubt he does actually know it, but technically he "ticked all the boxes". The problem came because a large part of the job is dealing with users. Something he is terrible at (he is the sort of person who will offend you at some point, whether intentionally or not).
As such, he met the technical requirements of the job, but would have been absolutely awful at it.
