For me, five years is a distant vision, but after three years, I see my self as a fully knowledgeable of Nav Canada's technologist. And If I have to stretch my sight for two more years after that, then I would see my seld f as a junior engineer level position.
Rachelle's Feedback
I recommend just going with the question rather than initially stating that 5 years is a long vision. Your answer on it's own would be more than sufficient. I have offered a new example, below.
"After three years I would like to be fully knowledgable as a Nav Canada technologist. My goal for years three to five would be to earn my way into a junior engineer position with your company."
