It would take an exceptional individual to lead a property that is challenging for whatever reasons: location, crime, resident demographics, lack of budget, lack of cohesive team, drugs, etc. The hiring process is a negotiation but in all fairness, young people fresh out of college looking for a first job may have inflated enthusiasm that can quickly wane once placed in this position at this property. The interview should cover all these points and in an ideal world, all cards are laid on the table. However, most of us have learned we left a good hand on the table because we read the situation wrong.
Experience certainly is the best teacher. This young lady has to decide for herself if this is the right job for her at that property. Hopefully she has a college mentor, family, and other people in her life who can give her some guidance and insight.
Now, would I hire someone like this for this kind of property? I doubt it. I would look for someone who has a lot more experience with this type of community and offer her a position as an Assistant Manager where she can learn the ropes without the insane pressure cooker of managing falling completely on her shoulders. I have seen management companies hire the first person who even remotely seems interested in taking it on, and maybe that is what your post is about, and in the end it is up to every individual to figure it out for him or herself.
It also depends on how available and vested her supervisor would be. I can tell you one thing, she may come into the position as a lamb if she decides to take it, but she will quickly learn to roar like a lion if she wants to handle being a manager.
