Trying to prevent age discrimination. During the interview if they see you have a first class medical that is more than 6 months old they know you are under the age of 40. They might also infer you to be over the age of 40 if you have a newer medical. I should also add that they ask you mark out your date of birth on all documents before the interview. It is just a simple step to make sure everyone has a level playing field. Also note, it is not required to be less than 6 months old to be selected for the interview. Just needs to be less than 6 months old when you interview.

No one would likely win an age discrimination suit against United anyway. Once they did discovery and found that United is hiring a bunch of guys over 40 they would have a hard time proving United didn't hire them because they were over 40. Just look at the ages of the guys in the recent classes. Its all just a part of CYA on United's part. |

The oldest in my class was 49, average 39. I know of a 55 year old who's waiting for his class assignment. |
Main goal is to get to IAH ASAP..only 2 A320 slots in the 24th class..so we'll see..the 320 fleet supposed to grow substantially in IAH

Does the 8 ball hafta carry my IPad? ;-)

Who will toe the line when the need arises (and it will)? A 45 year old with a military pension or a 33 year old? I'll take that young guy. Screw HR!

Not all 45 yr olds have pensions you know.

Contrary to misconceptions, not all 40s with pensions got pensions from towing the line and tigers don't change stripes overnight. Some 30s are still malleable and go with the wave rather than their own thoughts. How's that for vague generalizations and preconceived notions? Glad to be on the team with different points of view which lead to a better solution every time vs lemming group think |
I'll be in the 24th class as well.
See you guys there. I was told that the 73's were SFO, 320 IAH, and 75/76 DC. Spoke with S.S. on Monday.
Former XJT, anyone else? Jaden |
