- ubernoggin, on 05/09/2008, -2/+33I always find that a light pat on the buttocks and a wink at the end of the interview seals the deal.
- casspa, on 05/09/2008, -1/+28I find that ripping two shots of vodka and/or whiskey before the interview is the most effective
- JimboLimbo, on 05/09/2008, -1/+16the worst interview ive had was when the interviewer called me "michael" (not my name) halfway through the interview, and stupidly i didn't correct him for the rest of our meeting. some guy named michael out there either got the job or was rejected...because of my stupidity. :-(
- inactive, on 05/09/2008, -1/+12Yeah, i didn;t see that XFL is #1 coming a mile away.
- zerobackup, on 05/09/2008, -0/+10It is a custom left over from the Dark Ages, it is to prove you are unarmed.
- RanIntoTheDevil, on 05/09/2008, -1/+11Personally I prefer the more direct approach of an unexpected sensual embrace and subsequent fondling. But hey, whatever works for you.
- inactive, on 05/09/2008, -2/+12Hand Jobs make a much stronger first impression.
- louiebaur, on 05/09/2008, -1/+10a light kiss on both cheeks is a sure fire way to get you in
- nahsrocketeer75, on 05/09/2008, -1/+10Maybe that was a test: Let's see if this guy has the nerve to correct me.
- inactive, on 05/09/2008, -2/+7I;ve commented on the wrong story. Gay. I'll have to redeem myself with something witty.
- CarStan, on 05/09/2008, -1/+6That's great, i have the hands of a girl, they are merely skin and bones. Even a girl once said to me she'd love to have my fingers (the girlfriend of my best friend, so please no dirty jokes, kthx).
It's because i was very thin and skinny when i was young, because i had a very nervous stomach.
Now that problem is solved, and i have normal weight now and normal proportions, except for my hands.
Whenever i give another man a handshake they nearly squash my fingers.
Bye, Bye good first impression. - dext3r, on 05/09/2008, -1/+5I think you have redeemed yourself. Also dugg because you felt bad.
- tehWyman, on 08/19/2009, -1/+4If it's any consolation, your comment made me chuckle since I just read the story to which you are referring.
- bibix, on 05/09/2008, -3/+6Thanks!
- GeekyGerge, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3Shouting and Digg trading really need to be addressed in this week's town hall meeting.
- GeekyGerge, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3Every time you trade Diggs, God votes for Clinton.
- GeekyGerge, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2So that site basically takes everything that was on Digg 2 weeks ago?
- cambob76, on 05/09/2008, -2/+4Would you like a chocolate covered pretzel? When this topic comes up, I'm always reminded of Trainspotting... "I'm a bit of a perfectionist."
- GeekyGerge, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2Wow, nahsrocketeer75 really gets around.
- ubernoggin, on 05/09/2008, -1/+3That reminds me of this job interview http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dWMIuipn_c
- loveandrockets, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2I have a good handshake. Dry hands, firm grip, etc....
But it's all for ***** when people grip prematurely and just grab my fingers. I hate that. Then they guy thinks you're effeminate because your fingers are all squished together. They grabbed prematurely! They should be blamed. And you can't ask for a do-over. I think I ruined a job interview just because of this. I was thrown off and just kept thinking about it. And it was his fault.
Don't prematurely grab the fingers. - passedoutghost, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2Want to ***** instead?
- GeekyGerge, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2You're killing the Diggosphere.
- nomelitas, on 05/09/2008, -1/+3What happens if the firm is just trying to get around H1-B requirements- meaning they're just looking for a disqualifier?
- inactive, on 05/09/2008, -4/+5Really important to have a nice, firm handshake!
- JimboLimbo, on 05/09/2008, -1/+2sadly, i didn't
- craighoxton, on 05/09/2008, -1/+2"My pleasure in other people's leisure"
- craighoxton, on 05/09/2008, -1/+2"Hi, I'm Dabney Coleman. You may have seen me in such movies as 9 to 5..."
- Solis, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1Why?
- conscious, on 05/11/2008, -0/+1For those of you that didn't read the article... "And, at the conclusion of the interview, any damage done from a limp-wristed welcome handshake can be overcome with a light kiss on both cheeks." wtf.
- Solis, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1Why does a firm shake matter? This makes no sense to me.
- Solis, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1Why would it be obvious? Who cares if you have a firm shake or a light shake? I'm more inclined to not like someone who squeezes my hand as opposed to just takes hold of it.
- masterm1nd, on 05/09/2008, -2/+2My guess is half of the people who dugg you thought you were sarcastic and half didn't.
- betona, on 05/09/2008, -2/+2It's downright creepy the limp handshakes I've gotten, almost always from pale geeks. Makes me want to go wash it off. You too, ladies - a firm, friendly handshake goes a long way.
FTA: "Blackberry and cell phone stay in your pocket -- yes, really."
Even better: turn it off and leave it in your car. You don't EVEN want the damn thing buzzing or even worse, playing your stupid ringtone suddenly during the interview. Yep, I've seen that happen and for all intents and purposes, the interview was officially over right at that moment. - MJDub, on 05/09/2008, -1/+12nd'd. Therefore I digg the whole thread.
- je12u, on 05/09/2008, -0/+0"Hennigans"
- jameshighmore, on 05/09/2008, -1/+1You could wear reinforced gloves. Safe, AND they might think you have a secret identity as a hitman.
- Avor, on 05/09/2008, -2/+2I can't read the article description due to this ***** and misleading McDonald's ad. Their food isn't good at all.
- mydave, on 08/12/2008, -0/+0nice to have firm handshake. thank you.

http://www.devserve.co.za/ - Zippo, on 05/09/2008, -3/+2If the interviewer is a female, I've always found that a little pinch on the nipple goes a long way.
- themaestro18, on 05/09/2008, -2/+1Research that states the friggin obvious are such a waste of resources and money! http://www.bestsnippets.com
- photosalesnz, on 05/09/2008, -5/+3Just dugg, I have more that need Diggs
