I agree with Md. Saidur Rahaman . Just like to add Patience in the List. His/Her CV and Interview should give away a lot of info needed. Existing Publications is a proof of research skills, whereas attitude and answers during interview would reflect the Personal Characteristics.
Dear Adel Badri , thanks for sharing the question. The answer depends on the position that you need the doctoral student to be hired.
Always be passionate about knowledge and does not stop at a certain point , and he is egared to finish all what you assigned him to do in time or earlier
In addition to the previous answers, an impromptu interview and a CV
will determine the qualities of the candidate.
Ability, challenges, sincerity and rigor.He/she should always be passionate about knowledge ,as mentioned above .
if you want to hire someone who can deal with research challenges then hiring should be purely based on (1) Number of Citations, and (2) Number of Publications index in world recognized indexing such as Science Citation Index
It is very tricky! Some institutions have developed the Selection guides for this purpose. Even then, you can not guarantee the right choice of Ph.D candidate to hire.
This selection guide starts with how to set up the profile of an ideal PhD candidate for your project, the competences of the PhD candidate, how to assess these competences and the selection process. In the final chapter we focus on how to make the decision and your role as a selector...
Knowledge, skills and attitude are so important in this process if student fits your project scientifically and socially.

Open mind, work without prejudices, to be quiet.

Quiet? Surely the ideal candidate will speak when necessary, and ask lots of pertinent, penetrating questions.
In my opinion, the qualities of an excellent male doctoral student are likely to be related to the quality of his scientific contributions. These scientific contributions might not be easy to access before hiring him, time travel being (as far as I know) not possible.
To detect these qualities before hiring him is easy when you have a time traveling vehicle. All you have to do is to travel 40 years in the future and check dblp. There might be some evolution in computer science in 40 years (for instance brain control might be use instead of GUI, and nano quantic robot instead of a a screen).
Adel:
The qualities of a good doctoral student might include their determination, willingness to go the extra mile, and doing original research that can be replicated and offers a contribution to the field of study!
As for hiring, the candidate should be able to discuss their research candidly and with assurance and passion. Be able to discuss with animation why they choose the particular field of study/research and their motivation for the same. If they are being hired, they should be able to discuss how they see their skills and knowledge being applied to the particular job in question!
