For "a female mid 20s, well educated with 2 degrees" you don't seem to be all that smart. Just what is earning $5.00 a week going to get you? Probably not even a latte at Starbucks.
You may not be able to work in your field, but even McDonald's pays better than $2.00 an hour.
You are the oh so smart person asking if it's normal to work for $5.00 a week (or sixty two and a half CENTS an hour, if you couldn't figure it out), not me sweet heart. If you are really, "well educated with 2 degrees" one would think you could work that out for yourself?
Haven't you ever needed advice on something that seems obvious but wasn't somehow? Suppose you didn't read the part where I said this job could be a stepping stone to an even better one, humble beginnings etc, that is why I'm asking. You are being condescending for no reason also don't sweetheart me, you aren't a straight talker or whatever you think you are... just a bully.
People still take internships for no pay. I assume that's what this is, otherwise it would violate labor laws in most countries.
You'll have to weigh the value of what you're getting in terms of experience and networking against the financial hit you'd be taking. If you can afford it, and it seems like a valuable way to get your foot in the door, then do it, but you have to be careful to make sure you're getting something out of the deal.
And I would listen to him, he's like 95 and they didn't have internships back in his day.
IIN to work for $15 per week

I don't seem to be all that smart? Says you? The stranger on the internet who knows fuck all about me? There's no need to be offensive here.
