This question is another way for the interviewer to determine if this job is a good fit for you. If you hope to stay with Barnes and Noble long-term, mention that and describe how you would like to grow within the company, whether that includes learning new skills or promotions. If you plan to use this job as a jumping-off point for your career, that is okay, too. However, the interviewer will want to hear what you hope to gain from this job with Barnes and Noble and how that will help you on your career path. That will assure them that you will be committed to the company for as long as you are with them.

"I'm looking for a long-term job. I think very highly of Barnes and Noble and would love to settle down here. In five years, I hope to have gotten more confident in my leadership skills and moved into a management position."

"In five years, I hope to be a high school English teacher. I'm in my sophomore year of college right now, and, if hired here at Barnes and Noble, I plan to stay until I graduate. I think this job can teach me so much that I will bring to my classroom - organizational and administration skills, communication skills, and, of course, daily conversations about great literature!"
