SO...what do potential PhD supervisors look for apart from academic brilliance?

I have had 3 interviews and 3 rejections. Whenever I ask for feedback, they always say "because you dont have enough experience." Im beginning to think this is some sort of general excise used aongst supervisors. Surely my CV was read and noted that I dont have that much experience...so why call me for an interview?

Also..I have had a phone interview and then invited for an open day...and then rejected. Leaving me puzzled!

Any help would be most appreciated!!!...
