I'm sorry, I don't understand. I'm 62 and was offered an interview. Loads of 135 but no 121. Not worth the bother to interview? I know the prper response is "you don't try you won't know". Looking for info based on you guys on the line. Appreciate it.

Had a couple of guys around 62 when I went through in 2019. One of them had no jet time at all.

That close it's worth mentioning the 401k doesn't vest until 3 years of service
