ONLY two things I can think of are 1) No degree, and 2) Many many years since they've had a new type or upgrade.
If you're talking top-tier, then no degree is almost a certain show stopper... like 1% odds of success and that only with some extensive aviation credentials.

No recent type training event (apparently 3-5 years) is also supposedly a show stopper for some majors, and big factor for others. Some folks truly do struggle if they are far removed from schoolhouse... a great pilot (in his airplane) can truly suck for a long time in a new type.
