Is this an age discrimination question?
Is it legal for a hiring manager to verbally ask when one graduated from college during an interview?
The question was not on the written application.

Re: Is this an age discrimination question?
The question may be asked, however, it is a rather poor question and is suspect that it may be an attempt to determine your age. Age discrimination is illegal and disputes may be resolved through the EEOC and/or local agency. You may wish to consult with an attorney regarding any claims you may have.
