What matters most YOE or Skills?

Suppose there are two candidates A&B for a senior level position.
Candidate A is having 10+yrs of experience and 3/5 tech stack required for the role.

Candidate B is having 3+yrs of experience and 5/5 tech stack .

Compnay likes both candidates , Candidate for rich experience and Candidate B for skills.

If You are the hiring manager whom you will hire and why?

Don't think it's a fair comparison. 10+ person will go for manager level where his people management skill will be preferable then only tech......whereas 3+ will be for consultant level where tech matters

You can guess your answer.

hi all, currently have two offers:

1: EY - FDD, home city, very good $$ for FDD

2: PwC - post-merger integration, DDV team (essentially M&A Consulting) - bigger city, always been keen to move

Coming as a Senior in Audit, with recent FDD exposure (2 deals, obviously not much). I was looking for something more than just number crunching, wanting a mix of quant / quali / strategic work. M&A Advisory or a Corp Strategy role is where I'm looking to end up long term.

Thanks in advance!
