I can't imagine anyone being able give "the" answer to this question. If this information was available then all of us would try and model our résumés and our applications to fit the profile.
My suggestion would be to go through this blog and see who has been offered a CJO. As far me:
No military time, all 121, no T-PIC, all SIC, Multiple roles within my company, a decent bit of volunteering. Total time of approx. 4500.

In addition to what I listed before, I have a B.Sc., had 14 letters of rec for UAL (a handful of them internal), and attended multiple job fairs. I can't say for certain what got them to take a look at my app but I sure am glad!!
Best of luck!

If you can hit nearly all of those, you would likely be a preferred candidate for every company.

What does it really take to be invited for an interview at United? I know the minimums are posted online (1000 hr turbine, 1500TT) but we all know that's not getting anyone through the door or even close. Is it multiple type ratings? Tons of flight time? Safety programs and seminars and volunteering? I'm sure many have figured out what it takes to be called. Thanks

There is a relatively new hire gay pilot just off probation running around bragging on how he got hired at UAL. He had 2100 TT and no PIC time. I think if you check the right boxes you get hired with low time, or some HR weenie thinks you belong here, then anything is possible. I should have claimed to be a homosexual Native American back in the day.

I got to tell you, I wake up every morning as a white dude and I'm staggered by the challenges I face. This reverse racism is really making it tough to get through my days. Not really sure who I should call about it though… Not very many people like me in positions of power. I guess I'll just hope for the best :-)
My new hire class of 25 had two non-white males… I don't think I would be too worried about gay, Native-American Jews stealing "our jobs" just yet
