Long in short, I came to know that they have this intention more than a year ago. I was suddenly asked to take on a small analysis task without any clue. Why me? Actually this team has many skilled analysts available (obviously I was given time when having buffer). For them, this task may be a piece of cake, and for me, it's all new. Lucky enough, I completed it much earlier than the deadline. If I knew that it's a test, I'd organize my findings in a strong persuasive presentation, at least with a visualization look.
So I was approached, of course with my curiosity and interest. It is a long waiting time. Nothing was mentioned since the test happened exactly a year ago.
Suddenly, the last day of March 2018, I was asked for a small talk. It's an exciting news, if I am still interested, they will begin to process the fulltime conversion. What a great news! En..then I realized why they asked me to do the internal product purchasing analysis in late February. Could that be another test to see if I am still hands on what I know...I would better not guess anything.
The final result turns out good, I was converted from a contractor to a full time employee.
