21 B. 2. Seniority numbers will be assigned to individuals on the first day of their new-hire training in the following order:
a. Company transferees will be assigned the lowest seniority numbers within the class, in order of their most recent date of employment with the Company, then
b. New-hires will be assigned seniority numbers on the basis of the last four digits of each individual’s social security number. Individuals with the higher numbers will be assigned the lowest seniority numbers.
Note: New-hires with identical last four digits of their social security numbers, and transferees with identical employment dates, will determine their relative placement by drawing numbers.

A couple questions on uniforms for budgeting purposes. Are there any specifics on shoe choices? Plain toe only? Also, I heard a while back that they payroll deduct uniform purchases over the first year. Is that correct?

They will let you payroll deduct uniform purchases. The shoe choices have been relaxed, I can't quote the verbiage exactly, but if you have non wingtip black shoes, you are probably on the right track...more conservative is better for probation in case you get a long sleever.

I've heard that it goes by last four, highest to lowest, from a guy in Pilot Selection. Sucks for me, I start with a 2. NYC or Detroit Rock City, here I come! In a similar note, any idea from you guys how long it would take to bid and hold ATL on Junior iron for a newb? I'm guessing as more guys come in behind me it should be easier?
If you get the 320, 73N, or 7ER I would imagine it would be a little more difficult to get ATL in short order.

If you are based in the northern climes, I suggest a pair of these. I just ordered them as I flew with an FO wearing them. They were 10 years old and the soles looked almost unworn. Ariat International | Heritage Roper
The only thing I'd add is if you fly international a lot and take off your shoes during break, they can be a little tough to get back on if you do not plan for it.

That's what I did for initial as well. Every day after class I went for a run then to dinner with the guys, and studied for maybe 1/2 an hour.
When I went to bus training after the merger I called NATCO to see what to do to get ready for training and the guy told me to study NOTHING before day one or it would screw me up. I think there was one limitation and like 3 boldface that my 8 year old could memorize in 10 seconds so I had those down. No LOD at the time on that fleet so I didn't look at a single thing. Best training cycle I have ever been through in my life. Now we have screwed that program up though so who knows how it is now.

I've been wearing these for years and can attest to their durability. They are also very airport friendly, they do not have steel shanks.
The only thing I'd add is if you fly international a lot and take off your shoes during break, they can be a little tough to get back on if you do not plan for it.
