MCDBA with no experience OR 5 years of experience

If you had to choose between hiring an MCDBA who has very little real life DBA experience and someone who has 5 years of practical DBA experience but no certification which one would you go for?

Please submit your vote on the right hand panel here and if you wish explain your rational on a comment to this posting.

Please note that this is completely hypothetical – no one’s fate is being decided by your response here but it would be very interesting to see if there is an overwhelming opinion in favor of one or the other.

Sorry Maintenance Man - we had the poll up for a couple of weeks and removed it afterwards.
