Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Sitting with the applicant at a table in the middle of the office creates a more relaxed and equal atmosphere, which can make the applicant feel more comfortable. It removes barriers like a desk, which can create a power dynamic, and avoids the discomfort of too-close personal space or one person standing while the other sits.
