Anecdotally, I don't agree with the hypothesis that culture fit means they want to hire nice people. I've worked in a few places where people needed to be, for example, tough, tricky, bitchy, to survive.

I think part of the reason I got my job is because I euphemistically referred to "successfully implementing technical solutions in a complex political environment", and everybody knew exactly what I was talking about.
