When conducting an interview, it is important for the interviewee to remember not to invade the interviewees personal space , otherwise it will put the interviewee off and won't make them respond well to the questions asked of them.

Body Language
Body Language
Your body language can make a big difference during an interview. Positive body language often makes the interviewee feel relaxed and comfortable whereas closed body language makes the interviewee feel on edge and uncomfortable and as a result can make an interview awkward. An example of this would be this awkward Michael Parkinson interview with Meg Ryan.. In the interview, we see Meg constantly leaning away from Parkinson throughout, highlighting that she clearly didn't want to be there and overall made for a really awkward interview.

Good explanation of body language Ife. I like the fact you have outlined the effect it can have on the outcome of the interview. You have included a clear and well explained interview example which shows bad body language. It would have been nice to have another example to show good body language in action too.
