advice: never put in a job opening you're looking for somebody YOUNG

could you plz specify why not? I mean if I apply and get interviewed and do a trial project only to be told at the end that I am not young enough, I'd be very disappointed. Isn't it better to mention upfront that they need someone young and energetic? (I don't have much experience hiring, so may be someone can fill me why it is considered to be a bad practice.)

It can be illegal to suggest preference for age in hiring.
