Anyone can answer the below question, you just have to think like an
employer when you do that. Please respond to the question honestly
with A, B, C or D as the answer and quote the reason for your choice.

Question: If you are an employer, who would be your choice to employ
for a responsible position in your company?

Answer A: An inefficient, unproductive and incompetent candidate with
minimal domain knowledge and zero leadership skills, but who has been
in the same company (yours or another) for several years (either out
of loyalty or low confidence level) and holds a position eligible for
the job opening.

Answer B: A very efficient, highly productive, impeccably skilled and
a competent performer with excellent domain knowledge and strong
leadership skills, but who has had an unstable and bumpy career
(because either he was headstrong or lost the credit for his work to
someone else and/or was not properly recognized by the employers) and
has the experience which is eligible for the job opening.

Answer C: Both A & B candidates.

Answer D: Neither of them, will look out for a third one.

Answer D:
    A cannot be taken as he won't be able to do the job properly.
    B has high risk because he never got satisfied of any work (and hence bumpy and unstable career). If he doesn't get motivated to do something for long term (long term means work goes through high productive period and somewhat low productive period) then company will be again looking for person few months/quarters later.

praveen

I don't understand why any one would even give a second thought to A.
Why apply the Peter Principle to some one who can't do one job and
think that they may be able to do something else. This person should be
let go never mind be in line for another position. The second person
may be a good choice if the manager has a track record of being an
excellent manager and is able to have people feel empowered. This may
be what the person is looking for and you will end up with an excellent
employee. If there is no one available to mentor this person, then I
will keep on looking.
