During my search for a entry level IT job it seems like I've came across 2 or three field work jobs. The other two contacted me 2 or 3 months ago before the market came down and now another one is calling. The first two made me kinda specious by the way the interviewer talked to me on the phone, he asked would ask me things such as "are you sure your interested in this position?", "how about you set up this software on a 2nd computer and see if you want to do this".
The most recent one sounded a bit unsure also, he wants me to go down and see if I would like to do the actual work, tag along from what I understood. Which I found odd since most jobs just want to interview you when they first see you.
It sounds like to me that they have a high turnover rate for field technicians for whatever reason, so they take less experienced people to do the driving and such for their business, does this sound about right or am I just being over suspicious?
I think I may need to do field work until the recession is over since regular IT work is in short supply in a city that doesn't care for technology unless it helps them with their slot machines or their light and water displays
