It's impossible to know where you will be in five years, but a career-minded professional will often draft and regularly update their five-year career plan. Updating yours before your interview and mapping out what this opportunity and the possibilities for advancement from within could offer your career goals and milestones over the next five years will assure them you are looking to stick around for the foreseeable future. Inform them that you are looking for a long-term fit and that this position is the ideal next step for your career progression. "No matter what your skill or specialty, you'll find endless opportunities at American Airlines. With limitless routes for growth across all areas of business, you can take charge of your future and pave your path to success."
