My company is hiring for a new DevOps lead, and the hiring manager keep saying a candidate isn't a culture fit because she doesn't play video games or vibe with the Friday beer rounds. It feels like culture fit is just a polite way of saying doesn't look or act like us. I’m trying to push back, but I’m being told I’m overthinking it. How do you challenge biased hiring practices without being labeled as the diversity police?

I’m currently a 2nd year associate in commercial finance. I’ve realized I don’t enjoy a a strictly transactional practice.

Assuming that I could switch (or lateral), I’m thinking I may enjoy employment (and the ability to defend and train/advise). I appreciate any insight.
