We understand guys have questions about what to wear (and how to wear) their favorite pieces.  Stick with us all this week to get advice on how to look good, stay fresh, and even score a date. This is Complex Style's "How To" Week.

We get it, applying for jobs sucks. Not only are you bugging out about what to say and, more importantly, what not to say, you've also got to look the part too. When it comes time to meet a possible employer for an interview, guys know they need to look sharp, but there's more to an interview outfit than throwing on a suit and tie.

From the colors of your clothes to the accessories you choose to wear—or not wear—there's plenty to mindful before you meet a prospective employer. It's the epitome of dressing to impress, and we're here to show you how to leave a great first impression, without overshadowing your resume. This is What You Should Wear to a Job Interview.
