Trucky 04 asks for an example of a "sausage factory". Any reply is potentially libelous.
"Uniqueness" and "individuality" were stressed by him but this is unlikely to be every-one's idea of what's wanted by employers. What is wanted can often be taught to reasonable people of any age who then get the success they'd never otherwise get. Even aspiring politicians learn how to seem reasonable.
A Harvard, Yale, or Oxcam degree often holds up better than many others while "A" levels at some schools may well have been combined with enough character building to be of extra value. It can show and that would apply to flight schools.
I do buy the "sitting on the fence" part of the post.
PS. Elsewhere on pprune can be found what some employers want. Good English is near the top of their demands.
