There are people who really don't know that much (in multiple fields, not just Dev) but they are either completely un self-aware or they don't care and simply portray rock solid confidence. Perhaps some fields demand this like marketing where certain sorts of marketing are hard to quantify/value objectively so you need to show confidence so that the department keeps its funding!

Confident people will enter a greater number of these situations, and will continue to enter them even if they were rejected previously.
