mcoates , I have tried contacting VF and Cobham (to who I also applied to their cadetship) previously and could not find someone who would respond meaningfully to my enquiry.
Age and gender related discrimination might be 'protected' under Australian law, but it still occurs in workplaces all over Australia. It goes without saying that no prospective employer would ever admit to such practices. If you believe you have a case, then you have every right to make a complaint to the Australian Human Rights Commission:
