...several years playing in a regional orchestra
...several years playing in a training orchestra such as Civic or New World
...some top level summer festival experience like Tanglewood
...several years playing in a foreign orchestra
...a really great recommendation by a high profile teacher

etc.

Unfortunately, with the sheer numbers of applicants for any job these days, playing in the university orchestra doesn't make you a "qualified applicant".

Then again, after multiple auditions, the Cleveland Orchestra doesn't think ANYONE (that's available) is qualified to be principal trombone.
