added clarification based on other users comment as to my situation in this

| Jul 24, 2017 at 14:56 | comment | added | Rui F Ribeiro | I have seen as a kid messages "from the sister/brother/whatever"... I do not even want to imagine an adult resorting to those tactics. | |
| Jul 24, 2017 at 14:51 | comment | added | DarkCygnus♦ | Also to clarify my role in this situation as pointed out by @whrrgarbl | |
| Jul 24, 2017 at 14:48 | comment | added | DarkCygnus♦ | I edited the question to clarify that in the email based on @RobertDundon comment | |

| Jul 24, 2017 at 14:12 | comment | added | DarkCygnus♦ | No, she actually dropped the names. I just refrained from disclosing them | |
| Jul 24, 2017 at 14:04 | comment | added | Robert Dundon | Question for clarification: did you or the sender use the term "not-so-prestigious university / prestigious university"? | |

| Jul 24, 2017 at 13:35 | comment | added | DLS3141 | @GrayCygnus I'd give the guy the benefit of the doubt if and when he does contact you. He might be a great candidate whose sister has a poor sense of boundaries and decided to take matters into her own hands rather than simply telling him about the opportunity. Now, if he shows up for an interview with her in tow...there's a real problem. | |

| Jul 24, 2017 at 12:52 | comment | added | user812786 | What is your role in the interview process? Do you make hiring decisions? | |
| Jul 24, 2017 at 8:31 | comment | added | Erik | I take it you don't know the person who sent the email either? It sounds like someone referencing another person, but that only works if you know the referencer. | |
| Jul 24, 2017 at 8:21 | comment | added | Brandin | It may be unusual, but not unethical. If he does write to you and you do decide to interview him, try to find out the reason his sister wrote on his behalf. A lack of motivation on his part, or some better reason? | |

Removed presumptions made the OP (undesirable characteristics in the sister , lack of interest of the candidate) and improved structure and grammar. I suspect these maybe the reason for the multiple DV casted

| Jul 24, 2017 at 2:35 | comment | added | DarkCygnus♦ | I will definitely keep my word @JoeStrazzere , but this email makes me suspicious on this candidate and if he didn't write the email himself I am not sure if he is willing to commit to the company | |
