Seniority yes, so if you bypass a recall, and the company hired off the street, they go below you. Same with military leave. If you take 2 yeas off mil leave, you keep your seniority but don't jump up 2 more year on pay scale when you come back. This is my understanding, but doesn't mean its correct.
