Your interviewer is curious about what they could offer you to ensure you'll experience enduring job satisfaction throughout your career with them. So, ask yourself this question and thoughtfully answer it before pursuing the job further. The best approach to answering questions such as these is to examine your five-year career plan, and, when prompted, provide your potential employer with clearly set guidelines and timeframes for your professional development and career advancement expectations. This should be just as important a negotiating point as your pay, benefits, and cost of living. Paint a clear picture of your realistic expectations based on what you believe they can deliver. As AAA of Southern California advises their candidates, "The more you know about AAA before you apply, the better prepared you'll be to ask the right questions and provide responses that let us know you're truly interested in building a career with us."
