Can somebody translate this sentence in plain English? It's the answer that I got after a job interview. I aced the technical part, but I struggled a bit with the chatting with the bosses. |

When I hire people, once I've established they have the required level of competence, it boils down largely to personality and who we think would fit in best with the rest of the team and how I think they'd react in certain situations. Apart from when we had to decide between two lasses and ended up offering the job to the fitter one. |

Personable seems like veiled criticism. Like you're socially inept, but not in an offensive way. Nice but socially dim. |

It means (that it's their assessment that) you wouldn't gel with their "corporate culture", e.g. the people who already work there and the way that they do their job. |

I'm surprised everyone is taking the statement at face value. 'Not the right fit' is basically recruitment speak for everything from 'we interviewed someone better than you' to 'we thought you were a weirdo' to 'we hired the boss's cousin' to 'we're pretty sure you shat yourself in the middle of the interview' to 'when we asked you what you'd like to drink, you said 'a pint of cider and you meant it'. I've used 'not the right fit' in all of those scenarios. |
