Hi all,
I know in this day and age companies shouldn't discriminate against age but I'm after some advice about any experiences regarding applications.
I've just applied for Northern Rail trainee driver as max age was 50 I recall from the application. However I have found out from speaking to a member of NR staff that they don't take anyone over 40 because of amount of training/money invested they want to see a good return??
I'm 42 - is it an age thats past it so to speak to avoid wasting time.... I know on paper they can put max age 50 to satisfy requirements but its what they think internally.
