Got an email from a coworker about interviewing a potential entry level staff member:
**Would you be available tomorrow at 4:30 to interview? I don’t know anything about (college name) except that it’s a small private school but her *** is sweet. And, she has experience. I would also have her meet staff.**
She meant 'cumulative gpa'. Don't you think this could have been worded better? Should I give this girl the job on the basis of this recommendation?

It definitely could have been worded better. Your coworker needs to think before typing.
But as to the "girl" I would interview her because she has experience, not because of her grades, and if I liked what I heard, I would hire her.
Interviews don't mean you have to hire. Have her meet the staff, see if she can do the job, and make your decision from there.

The recommendation was from your coworker or from the potential employee ?
Because if the recommendation was from your coworker in regards to someone else, don't punish the applicant on the basis of a poorly written email written by someone else. Interview the girl and decide her potential for yourself. Just my thoughts. :)

No, you should interview the candidate as if you had never seen the email.
People should be hired on qualifications, not recommendations.

Sounds like either a typo or a mixed message.

that's not very professional behavior. See if you like the girl then tell her not to have this women write her anymore recommendations.
