I had a recruiter hit me up for a similar job, 25 hours per week and no moonlighting and much lower pay than you would expect for the job. Specifically hiring for students or interns is a great way to bring on help when you don't have the budget for a fully-qualified full-time person to do the work, but you still need to cover a few extra hours. Hiring temps or contractors is another option, but not usually as cost-effective as students and interns. They already limited the hiring by specifying the pay rate and hours per week. I don't see how specifying students or interns would serve to limit it any further than that.
