I don't see anything wrong with a suit that happens to have slacks for an interview.  If you look at the harsh realities of a modern assistant's job, pants are really far more practical.  How many of us have never had to crawl under a desk to reconnect a cable, or prowl the depths of the storage room doing inventory, or have our arms elbow deep in the bowels of a copier or printer?  

I would, however, expect them to be classically tailored trousers.  Not the navel-baring, snug-through-the-hips, flared things out there.  (My pants are all at least three years old because I'm not buying another pair until they put the waistband back where it belongs!)
