Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A social distance of approximately 4 to 12 feet is considered appropriate for business or formal settings, which would include a job interview at a firm. An intimate distance (less than 1.5 feet) or personal distance (1.5 to 4 feet) would be too close and inappropriate for a professional job interview. A public distance (over 12 feet) would be too far apart for effective communication.
