What do you think about wearing black jeans to a job interview at a non-corporate company?

I always struggle to figure out if it's acceptable to wear black jeans! Some companies it seems totally fine, but sometimes it's not. What do you all think? Should I just avoid at all costs for a first-round interview?!

For an interview? I wouldn't either. You want to dress to impress. That first impression is important. However, it's also depends on what type of job you're applying for. If you're going to be working in an office I would be dressing up. If you're going to work in a manufacturing shop... that may be a little different. I would do a little research and look into what the dress code of the company is. That may help you decide on what is appropriate and what is not.

For an interview I wouldn’t, but I think gradually working them in after you start is fine :)

You can easily dress up black jeans. Blue jeans are different. If you can't wear something somewhat comfortable than maybe it's the wrong job anyways :)

I would suggest to wear black stylish slim ankle pants instead of any kind of jeans to interview...
