That's very much true. When I first got out of school, I found myself in an industry where I was very much not a good cultural fit. While I did find a job, I had trouble advancing and I was never able to get a job anywhere else in that industry. I eventually changed to an industry where I was a better cultural fit and it was like night and day. I enjoyed the work more, my career picked up, and I just generally liked my coworkers better. It was still a job, so things weren't and aren't perfect, but everything does improve when you're in a place that's a good fit for you. Those companies that we rejecting me as "Not a good cultural fit", were right, and I would have been less happy in the long term had they ignored the cultural fit issues and hired me anyway. Like a lot of young people, I didn't know myself well at the time. Sometimes people aren't a good fit for an industry or a company, and nobody wants to hire someone who they think is ultimately going to be unhappy in the role. That doesn't do anyone any good.
