I think notifications of possible job opportunities are THE most
I've been getting quite a few emails regarding age discrimination regarding
the email below. Just so it's known, the recruiter did not place this
requirement on the job, nor did I. The requirements are poorly written, no
question.
My intent was to allow someone the opportunity to gain employment

I don't think asking the age on an employment application is prohibited;
however, it invites suspicion and leaves a paper trail that may haunt you.
Defining a college graduation date is odd, and appears to be a silly way to
gauge

But then if I graduated from college when I was 35, the graduation time
frame would make me 46 to 50 years old

I believe that this sort of age specificity, even if cloaked in graduation
year, is illegal in the United States

Maybe the loophole is that they are only asking for year of graduation? They
are allowed to ask that.

But then if I graduated from college when I was 35, the graduation time
frame would make me 46 to 50 years old. So is this really an age
criteria? Or maybe is this saying I want somebody that has a certain
style of training of a type not given today? Or maybe is this saying I
want someone
Graduated between 1988 and 1992? Sounds like age discrimination to me! No
one over 40 need apply. Not that I’m interested in the position, but this
requirement sounds like it could violate the Age Discrimination in Employment
Act of 1967 ( http://www.eeoc.gov/facts/age.html) .

Not that it doesn't go on all the time, but it is illegal, and in my opinion,
wrong.
Some years ago there was a flap with IEEE Spectrum running ads that asked for
