I call bullshit. Especially because this is a temporary position, either way in a few months she would be gone. And if there's an attitude problem she could be fired.
I've had plenty of jobs that were beneath me and I hated (I even worked at Taco Bell for a season as a graduate student), I did them and did them well then left when I felt it was time to move on, no harm no foul.
And this includes computer science and programming jobs. Yes I enjoy programming and engineering and generally like my job, but all this fake enthusiasm is annoying. Most people are there for one reason to make money, either now or in the future.

- kjs3 12y agoOh my...called bullshit. Knock yourself out. Objective reality doesn't match your preconceived notions. You'll find that happens a lot as you move through life.
- solarmist 12y agoI don't doubt many of people feel that way and a lot of them are hiring managers, but I don't feel the need to question someone's motivations for applying to a job below their level. Life's complicated enough without trying to overlay my preconceived notions about why they're appling for a particular job onto someone else, as you say.
- 2muchcoffeeman 12y agoCan you enlighten us then? The statistical improbability of getting hired for such a position aside, if someone overqualified wanted to work for you in a (very) temporary position, why would you not hire them? Or at least get them to interview?
