Icebreaker,
Here's one suggestion. Since OfficeTeam provided that advice, go back to them and ask them to interview you, just as if you were a new candidate. After the interview (or during) have them point out places where you could have been more aggressive in your response. Where you need to add a little more enthusiasm.
Second suggestion: Read "What Color is My Parachute." My sister highly recommends this book and has given me pointers out of it.
You can be professional while at the same time having a little fun. For instance, a really didn't like the way this particular fella interviewed so when he pulled out the piece of paper with the standard questions on it and asked me what is my weakness, I replied, "Chocolate cake and ice cream." Then he asked how do I handle stress, I said, "A jacuzzi bath and a glass of wine." I still was hired by the company but not working for him (there is a God). HR Director thought it was funny.
Good luck, I.P.
