"We only hire for culture fit." It sounds like a commitment to quality — but in practice it often just means "people like us," and it quietly builds a comfortable, fragile monoculture where nobody sees the problem coming from a new angle.
In Lie No. 2 of Lies of HR, we take it apart: where "fit" really comes from, why it screens out the difference a team actually needs, how AI threatens to automate yesterday's hiring bias at scale, and why hiring for culture add — not culture fit — is the more honest goal.
The voices are AI; the arguments come from Martin Spiteri Schillig's sixteen years in HR.
