Question 7

At a job interview, Sofia answers the first questions clearly. She keeps eye contact with the interviewer and sits with an open posture. When she is asked a difficult question, she crosses her arms and looks down while saying, "I am very confident about that."

Use your knowledge of verbal and non-verbal communication to explain how the interviewer may interpret Sofia's communication.
