How you answer this question will tell the interviewer whether you'll be committed to the role you are applying to or are looking to fill a temporary employment gap. Before they can determine your fit into their culture, they're curious to find out what your goals are and whether those goals are in line with theirs. Essentially, they're trying to find out whether this is a job for right now or if this is the right job for you. Thoroughly research the position and their work culture and determine how your goals align. If you haven't already, put together a five-year career plan. You should be ready to revise your five-year career plan every year, adjusting your goals accordingly.

"Before I started college, I drafted my first five-year career plan. I've been updating it every year, adjusting it where necessary. This practice has helped me hone my time management skills, and I now have a great track record for forecasting and meeting my goals. I recently revised it, and I have it with me if you'd like to see it. I've broken down attainable goals and what I hope to achieve regarding my career growth and self-development. I'm looking for long-term employment, in a position that will be secure, with a company that's willing to invest in me as much as I invest in them."
