Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Perceptual defense is not specifically related to interview situations; it refers to the general tendency of people to see what they want to see and ignore information that contradicts their preconceptions or beliefs. The other options (first-impression error, similarity error, and contrast error) are common errors in person perception during interviews.
