I think "culture fit" is just another way of saying "if we like you or not." It doesn't really matter how good you are, if you don't laugh at their jokes, or they don't like the way you dress, or if they think you might be a threat to their intelligence, you might as well be completely unqualified, because you're not going to "fit." Do I sound jaded? :)


I think you're spot on, but I definitely don't see anything wrong with it.


Dead on, I have too much cultural experience. The term is abused.
