Family

Education (including masters)
Lack of violations, disciplinary actions, criminal history, etc.
Interesting outside activities
Personality/Physical Appearance
Total PIC time (some majors are rumored to avoid guys who have been on the same seat and airplane for many years, supposedly a training risk)
In other words an RJ driver with an AA from ITT tech who's out of shape and plays a lot of video games is probably going to stay on the RJ....
