Jane is on the hiring committee that's been tasked with finding a new employee for her department. Jane's supervisor isn't sitting in on the interviews with her, but they gave her a directive to be sure the person hired fits the office culture. Everyone in the office is between the ages of 25-30, enjoy going to happy hour together after work, and share the same interests outside of work. Jane personally believes these similarities contribute to a fun office culture where everyone is family.

Jane's committee has interviewed 5 people, four have 1 - 3 years of experience and are similar in age to her. One candidate has 15 years of experience and is 45 years old. During the interview, the older, more experienced candidate made it clear he would work hard Monday through Friday from 8-5, but he won't be part of happy hour and other out-of-work activities unless he's paid to participate.

It's clear to Jane and the other members of the hiring committee that the person with 15 years of experience is the most qualified person for the job, but Jane's supervisor told her to hire for culture fit. Jane knows that is wrong and doesn't reflect cultural maturity in her recruitment processes. How should Jane solve this problem?
