Yes, it is another example of dangerous territory. I take it that the first year
you were paid by an agency, not the placement site, and the second year you were
paid by the placement site, not the agency. These are two different employers
and thus two blurbs. "Converted from temp to perm based on performance." may be
a fine first line for the more recent of the two. IFF (if and only if) no agency
was involved, you can combine without risking unhappy repercussions later.

wondering if one blurb could cover this experience. For instance, list total
time served, list company name something like "Company X/Employment Agency Y"
and a short line at the end of the blurb indicating the first year was through
the agency.
