Well all power to you! But should you be put in such a position some day, I suggest being open to learning from some of the great leaders in history. Not to say you want to hire an army of groupie lightweights, but passion is not a quality to undervalue.
Exactly. If this woman was to be hired, she'd probably take in everything shown to her. Honestly, if there's a position open for someone that passionate but a bit rough around the edges, find a junior role to put them in within a team she can really learn from.
Depending greatly on the short and long term situations, I'd rather hire someone enthusiastic and wait a few months for them to get up to speed than hire someone with more experience who is dispassionate about the job. There's just so much more room for growth with the former (and initial salary negotiation should be a cakewalk from a management perspective).
Sure you could bitch and moan about her portfolio, the grammar used, etc... But this still stands out and her passion is there. These kinds of people soak up whatever you give them.
Plus it takes balls to do something like this, and that's a good trait.
