Exec owes his life to marginally-competent jobseeker. Hire her?

I don’t think he should give Amy the job. However, I do think he should mentor her and help her improve her professional and interviewing skills so she’ll be a much stronger candidate next time around as well as keep an eye out for other positions she may be qualified for and recommend her.

I’ve been in jobs I wasn’t qualified for. They paid the bills for a while, but I would have been much better off in the long run not suffering through that.

Again no one has said “Amy” is not qualified. She IS qualified. Just not the “most qualifed” per the tests, etc.

This is a great observation. Since I think he owes her something, I really like this further option for what he could do that would be proper. Nice.
