On-the-job training is inevitable. The question is what you'll primarily be trained in: Office politics, or some other skillset which will actually go on your resume.
Similarly, the job will inevitably change if you're around long enough, and that's the nub of the meat of this: It's an old adage that you should never marry someone to try and change them, because people don't change, they just become like they are, only moreso. Both ends of the equation change, but they change around a solid core which was formed decades ago and will not be modified except through some serious event.
So personality matters quite a bit if you're looking for a marriage. If you're looking for a hookup, it only matters on the extreme ends of the bell curve.

This holds two things constant: You and the job.
