Candidates naturally feel uneasy when interviewing. In the end, one hour of chatter will either get you a job you kind of desire, or not.
I think it's our responsibility, as interviewers, to make people as comfortable as possible so that they can perform at their best. It's our responsibility to prepare for the interview, smile to the candidate, downplay any hiccup they may have.
I don't believe all the BS about "taking people out of their comfort zone": 98% of people will feel uneasy at an interview and they will be well out of their comfort zone already.
