>Sure, they also interview older middle-aged candidates but the benchmark tolerance for hoop-jumping is set by the 22-year olds therefore you won't get sympathy from employers about disrupting your life to stay in the running.

So basically they find a legal way to discriminate against older candidates?



Any process will fit some candidates better than others.


If I had some process that fit male candidates far better than female candidates, with no clear benefit compared to other processes that had less of a biased fit, would that be a problem?


We all get old. Its actually pretty fair.
