Job interview souve vivre - England, UK Hello! Please advise on situation described below. There are two interviewers; one female and one male. As far as I know they have similar positions in two different companies. At some point I may shake their hands. What is the right order? Is that even matter? Job position is nothing special, entry level manual work but in quiet prestigious facility. Thank you

It doesn't matter -- whoever first greets you or is introduced to you. Other things being equal, if one was more senior, that would be the one.

In my own opinion, it's better you shake the both of them. However, it's more preferable you shake the man first irrespective of his position, and then move to the woman and shake her too. Important point to notice: shake their hands firmly. It's more corporate that way. Thanks, and good luck. I have three (3) Language Groups on WhatsApp: English, Spanish and Yoruba. They are a mix of native and non native speakers. Message me if you want to join any of the Groups. Thanks.

No, it doesn't matter at all what order you shake their hands in, just whichever order comes naturally, i.e. shake the hand of the person closest to you first. Good luck with the interview!
