In my experience, jerks don't like being told that they're jerks.

YMMV

Yeah... but they really don't like being told they're incompetent.

"Culture fit" doesn't mean incompetent though.

It could be, if you wanna let the person down in the least offensive way. There's no easy way to tell someone they didn't get the job.

Nobody likes being a Jerk regardless of what reality says. But i'll agree, Jerks do seem, well, Jerk(ier) when told so haha
