That's why I don't think there is *an* American culture. We're too big.
I think there are probably American cultural traits, if that's a thing. Like, wanting it new, wanting it fast, wanting it time-saving, wanting it *perfect*. But I think that gets translated into a lot of different traditions from region to region.

Also, you have in the US a particularly-mobile subset of the workforce, namely the professional working class, which is likely to move some distance at least once during their lifetime. As a result, I think some cultural traditions (like regional accents and turns of phrase) are losing their power...
Mmm, grits.
But I never heard of Kraft dinner until I met Canadians. So while Kraft mac and cheese may be part of my ethnic food, "Kraft dinner" isn't.
make sure you're using the exact words from the listing in your resume and letter.
Our HR (It's gov't though) recommended using bullet points and the exact words to show how your experience & education match up with the qualifications. Being gov't they use a points system for each match...style counts for nothing.
Good luck Tom!
I have always hated Kraft Dinner.
