So I've been on the job hunt while working some contract jobs through some contracting agencies. The contractor I work for now sent me to an interview that might lead to a permanent position doing desktop support at a factory that makes U-bolts. Everything sounds good, job is described as mostly break/fix work. Right up my alley.
I go to the interview. Answer some questions for both the HR guy and the fellow who currently does the IT work. Things go fairly well for a first meeting, and the interview lasts almost an hour. A couple of days later, I hear back from the recruiter that I didn't get the position. Well, shoot. I asked if they had any feedback, and was told they said I wasn't proactive enough.
Um, you described the job as almost purely REactive. Maybe I should have offered to go break things when work was slow that day?
