Latest Boeing guidance (IIRC) is align yourself as close as possible to the runway edge on side of handling pilot (we line up the edge in the bottom outside corner of the windscreen as guidance), bring aircraft to a stop, apply full tiller into the turn and use differential thrust and differential braking to complete the turn. Works very well in my experience, although initially feels a bit weird as it feels like the rear of the aircraft is going backwards!
