That's too bad, I'm 22 and a CFI/CFII/MEI as well and teaching at a very good school and I haven't had that problem, I believe our oldest full time instructor is 24 as well so I suppose the alternatives are not necessarily there for someone that would allow age to blind them. I have had nothing but praise on my training, from my students, boss, FAA examiners, and that's all you need to know you're doing a good job. Don't let anything get to you, as long as you know you're doing a great job and people tell you, then you're fine.
It's always fun when I tell my students I was an instrument rated private pilot before I got my drivers license. Priorities in order a bit
On topic, I have heard that the interview is about 20-30 minutes long of which 80% of it is more HR questions.
