Please Don't Fist Bump

The first line of this article on Yahoo caught my attention.

Could handshakes become a thing of the past?

If you don't have a genuine medical reason not to shake hands, you need to shake hands with everyone you meet throughout the interview process.

And your handshake should be firm, but it's not a strength competition. And ladies, your handshake is just like a gentleman's: firm and with the entire inside of your hand, not just your fingers.
