How to hire for culture fit

Who can conduct a cultural interview?

If you’ve built a strong culture? Anyone in your organization!

If you’ve correctly assessed your values companywide, then they don’t just live with managers, HR, or executives. Anyone should know what values your company stands for, and anyone should be able to ask candidates about them.

Put another way, suppose you suddenly had to step away from the interview. Who could you trust to jump in and ask the candidate about cultural fit? If your answer is “no one” or “only a few people,” you have a problem!
