would say the following:

Mature, confident but not arrogant, decisive but consensual, leader and team-player, listener who knows when to act, focussed but not nerdy, worldly and can talk to the customers on a level.

ENTJ is the classic, but basically not someone at extreme personality types.

Bottom line - someone whom you don't mind sitting next to for 12 hours and then sharing a beer with.

Go to uni and get life experience - it will add hugely to your personality, plus the market is dire at the moment and will continue to be so for at least a couple more years.
Pretty much sums it up. It's beem my experience to select a pilot lately and it pretty much sums up as above. The guy hits all the high points at the moment. I was impressed. But I can't wondering how well he would have worked out if there was some kind of flexibility in the market.
