d. behavioral interview

please select the best answer from the choices provided

a
b
c
d

Explanation:

The company is in New York and the applicant is in California (a long - distance situation). A distance interview (like video - based or phone - based) would be the most cost - effective as it avoids the costs of travel for either the company or the applicant. A performance interview focuses on the applicant's ability to perform tasks, a group interview involves multiple candidates at once, and a behavioral interview focuses on past behavior, none of which address the distance - related cost - effectiveness issue.

Answer:

A. Distance interview
