You did something "right." You took a temp job and did well in it to the point where you were wanted/needed beyond the temp assignment.

Some people won't take a temp job or they'll take a temp job and treat it like a temp job. It's similar to work study jobs in undergrad and grad school. For a number of reasons, most students don't treat those jobs like they will ever result in fulltime pay with benefits or a career.
