I disagree. As the poster above said it is the fairest way. Some could say age based is discrimination, social sec # is social security discrimination. Random assignment is as fair as it gets. It's a computer generated process at the airline I was speaking of. The way it works is the next-in-line employee numbers are lined up to equal the amount of pilots in a class. Then the computer randomly assigns a pilot name to an employee number. That's how it works. There's no manipulation involved.

A HR person or recruiter could offer it to a candidate - we'll put you in the top 5 if you......... Oh, his dad is a Captain here, put him first (or last). She is the only female pilot, put her first. This guy is 60 years old, put him last. All of those things could easily happen when a nameless/faceless HR person or administrative assistant "randomly" picks the order on a computer.
Draw names out of a hat on the first day of class...at least that is more likely to be fair.
