Top 6 Interview Tips – Tip 03: Perfect the Handshake

The perfect handshake should have the following characteristics:

• Right Handed – You should only ever use your right hand.
• Full Palm – A handshake should grasp the full hand.
• Firm Grasp – This one is tricky. You should have a firm grasp when you shake hands, but you do not want to come off as too aggressive; be sure not to squeeze too hard.
• Smile – You typically only shake hands when you first meet someone. Try to remember to smile and make eye contact. This is a new relationship that you have the opportunity to develop! Try to seem eager to speak with them and learn more about their organization.
