Dear All,
I came across an interesting topic and thought this may benefit the HR people during the interview process. Even otherwise, this would serve to be useful in understanding what exactly the person who is talking to you is communicating through his/her body language. If there is anything else that can be added, please share.
Thanks!!

Hi Ash,
I went through the article. Good one. I have a few inputs that I've gathered from various reading materials.
Crossing of legs is not always a sign of disinterest. If the person seated next to you has crossed his/her legs towards you, it means they are open to talking to you and listening to what you have to say. If they have crossed their legs pointing away from you, it is a clear sign of disinterest.
A candidate who sits at the edge of his chair and leans forward is a sign of his willingness to agree with whatever you say. On the other hand, a candidate who sits firmly and leans back in his chair is pretty sure of himself and what he wants. It sometimes might border on arrogance.
Also, someone who sits leaning forward, with the tips of their fingers on both hands touching, should tell you that this individual is confident and is ready/waiting for a challenge to be thrown at him.

Thank you very much, Cassy, for your valuable clarification and explanation. I feel we need to understand the situation and combination of different postures before we jump to a conclusion. Anyways, thank you very much once again.
