Kirsten Flores · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : A, Explanation :  The purpose of a second interview is typically to give executives and administrators (who were not present at the first interview) an opportunity to meet and evaluate successful candidates. This helps ensure that the candidate is a good fit for the company culture and that everyone involved in the hiring decision is on the same page. The other options, such as discussing salary packages and benefits or placing a candidate in an anxiety-producing situation, may occur during a second interview but are not necessarily the primary purpose.
