Should I interview for a mid-sized bank as a deal execution assistant?

Is this postion just something for hot girls or could it actually lead me somewhere? Because a recruiter slid into my DMs about the position (50K salary) and IDK whether to apply even as just a back-up job. I'm currently in my last year of college at a super non-target and my GPA is mediocre due to a lot of things. So far, I've interned at a hedge fund (doing research) and a rotational investment internship at a large state pension fund. Also I don't want to brag but I guess I'm an attractive college girl and kinda worried this bank is just looking for "eye candy" or something in the assistant role. I'm also studying for the CFA level 1. Would I be better off not even considering this job as a backup?
