It wasn’t a factory job, but as others have said sometimes it’s a job posting for a very broad field that you get trained for a very specific niche in.
It happened to me twice when I was doing drafting.
I interviewed for a job and they said “This is based in CAD but it’s a really hyper-specific job. We’ll train you, but you have to be a good drafter to start.” They closed their doors less than a year later, but it was fun and it wasn’t any sort of normal drafting whatsoever. I was doing those stocking drawings for grocery stores where it told you how many faces of canned goods went here and boxes of this went there.
Second time was my very next job after that. They trained me to do design work that only a few people in the US were doing. Worked there briefly because they didn’t pay you like you had a special skill. Don’t tell me I’m in a special job and pay me like McDonald’s. I’m not here for bragging rights.
