Most aviation jobs, especially at the level where the original poster considered, are at-will jobs. The employer has no obligation to hire him, or you, or anyone else. Whether the employer elects to hire someone else because he likes their flight times, certification, experience, education, recommendation letters, age, crows feet, or buddy Sam, is irrelevant. It's also their discretion.

Millennials cannot part with their phones...period. They have severe separation anxiety if they can't immediately check their phone every time it beeps, or to Facebook, snapchat, Instagram, tinder, or whatever ridiculous app they have consuming their life.

I'm thinking his resume was ON the phone....:rolleyes:

If indeed such was the case, ncpilot1996, don't do that ever again. In fact, if you interview, shut that phone off and make it go away.

He asked to see a picture from a recent flight an that's why I had it out, forgot to mention that part. We were talking about me flying a C421C single pilot 91 ops and he wanted to see th 421 because he said he was looking at buying one

We were talking about my 91 experience flying a C421C and he said he was looking to buy one and wanted to see the one I was flying and I had laid it in my lap.

Young Aviator with funny story
 

I know the feeling. I used to fly 135 and without fail, at least once a day I would get some passenger thinking they were a smart *** ask me "so, are you old enough to fly?" Over the years I developed my own smart *** responses too if I felt like I could get away with it. Yup, get used to it. You'll be hearing it for at least another 10 years!

The struggle is real
 

I'll be sure to steer well clear of your lawn, sir.

Wow, he obviously thought you were lying to him about your experience. Once he was convinced you were not he should have congratulated you on your accomplishments at such a young age. If he did not want to hire you he should have at least offered career advice and/or told you to come back in a few years.
Good luck and don't give up, your situation will improve. I have been on both sides of this coin. Too young in my previous profession for several years [it used to really **** the old guys off--- that they had to listen to me and negotiate with me and even treat me as an equal :)]

Now I am old enough but with relatively limited experience. Perhaps in a few years we will both have just the right combination--- in the meantime just enjoy each day and try to remember the stories as you will be telling them for years!!

Why should the employer offer anything? The employer is the chooser, not the beggar. He doesn't owe the job applicant anything.

The original poster's story changed; he stated that he walked into the interview, was told that the information on the resume must be false, and then told he didn't stand a chance due to age. Grabbed phone, walked out. He's since told us that the original "funny" story wasn't quite true, and that he spent time chatting with the employer and discussing experience.

Unfortunately, the two versions aren't compatible.
