Regarding job interviews, Thelma Domenici recommends:

When you meet the interviewer, put out your hand, make eye contact and say his or her name. It's better to be formal rather than casual: "Ms. Jones, thank you for taking the time to see me."

During your handshake, firmly clasp the interviewer's hand, touching the web between your thumb and index finger to that of the person you're greeting. Hold for 3 or 4 seconds while you pump from the elbow two or three times. Avoid a bone-crushing squeeze or an indifferent pinch with the fingers. Remember to smile.

Don't take a seat until the interviewer motions you to sit. Sit up straight and attentively, don't cross your legs or your arms, and keep your legs still. Use active listening techniques like eye contact, head nods, an appropriate "Hmmm," and ask questions when the opportunity arises.

Stay positive about previous employment and prior supervisors. Don't be afraid to assert yourself. Tell the interviewer you have great respect for the company and would be very proud to join the team, or that you are a very hard worker and are enthusiastic about the company's future.
