I think a bit a both is important this is because it is not always individuals with year of experience that will do well. But rather those with a natural flair and willingness to learn and go the extra mile that will excel.

I think many people take the word "experience" wrong: Just because someone has20 years' experience doing something, that does NOT necessarially mean they are any good at it!

IT is true when " Experience does matter when comes with rational thinking". Even then I have faced situation where2 -3 years less numbers disqualify you as competent candidate. Mostly seen 'Quantity not the Quality"

In this volatile global business situation what matters is to act swiftly to conditions and situations. Experience brings the thecniques and ability to make decisions swiftly. They can use their previous experience and existing channels to pass and act immediately. Talented people can create a new way of doing things to solve or act in the changing environment. Experienced people have a fear of trying new way of doing things. Talented people not sure how do it in most circumstance. There are people how have both qualities. It is a bonanza for companies to have a staff with such qualities

Every experience person has his talent, he being continued for his services for many years with same 

products with his employer that means employer has found best talent to continue his services for a 

long time Award. Employer  wishes further more progress with new more educated people to create

their talents with the Global World and they get more benefit than experience people for same job.It sometimes affects accordingly to company and experience people start leaving the company then what happens...... Therefore , according to me  experience has his talents evaluate him and you will see how experience is important.
