It began several years ago when I started working for Mr. H as a temp. It took time, effort, mistakes and a lot of painful focus to learn and ultimately, I was successful. He asked me to find a location, negotiate a lease, remodel the space if needed and take care of all interior decorating and procurement. Negotiators.

The staffing agent asked if I was open to temp to perm, even though the position was for a full time EA, he feels the CEO may need time to see if it is a good fit. I have no idea how long "temp" is considered before they would offer the permanent position. What did they learn? How long do you think is fair?

If I had more work to do and would be learning along the way, I would stay. And as I was working, job hunting and/or temping, I had to find other sources of happiness. I also thought about money, salary negotiation, and how I was spending my time. You mention you would stay if you had more work to do or you were learning more.
