Perfect handshake technique will give you an advantage in job interviews and you will receive more respect at social events.
1)Firm Grip
Only crush their hand if they're your friend as a joke. Don't give a weak grip either, you still want to squeeze a little bit. Too hard is better than too soft because it's better to be feared than laughed at.
2)Hand positioning
The webbing between your thumb and index finger should touch the other person's. Shaking someone's fingers looks very timid and feminine.
3)Arm entry angle
If you consider someone your equal then your arm should be parallel to theirs when shaking. If they're inferior then you want your arm to come down to meet theirs so it looks like you are literally higher up than them socially.
4)Eye contact
It's a sign of weakness to look at the hand during a handshake. Make sure you stare their eyes down to let them know their place.
Tips
At a social event hold your drink in your left hand so you are ready to handshake because most people use their right hand.
When you handshake, pump their hand one or two times, more than that is awkward and no shake is beta.
If you have grease or sweat on your hand then quickly wipe on trouser leg.
To avoid handshake rejection make sure you clearly have their attention before offering your hand, either get their attention verbally by saying their name or hello or if you just made eye contact then that should be enough.
To establish dominance pull their hand towards you.
