How much impact does a referral from people in different positions/locations hold? I am hoping to apply for a role at Accenture and have two people who are willing to refer me for the role. Both are in the same service line but one is a manager in a different country and the other is an analyst who just joined the company but is in the office that they are hiring for. Who would be the best referral? I really want to maximize my opportunity of getting an interview for the role.

I know yore not going to like my answer, but if I were you id ask the analyst to introduce you to mangers from that office. I'd frame it as an introductory call to get to know more about office culture, line of work and that managers journey/experience at the firm.
