Silly, wasteful move. I don't see a point in changing it. Should be spending their time working on pay rates, not how seniority is decided for new hires.
Give the old guys first choice. It only matters for one day, when aircraft & base assignments are made. Then it all falls in order of hire.

I'll have to check with the low pilot in a class that didn't get to upgrade but watched a classmate. I'll make sure to reiterate that seniority only matters Day 1.
