"I recently became engaged. Although we have not set a date yet, we have agreed to wait twelve months before the wedding. My fiance just passed the Bar exam here and has been offered an opportunity to join an existing law firm. Presently, we plan to stay where we are and build a career, not just work a job. Also, we do not plan on having children for at least two years after our marriage. We both feel that being able to become established in our careers and save for our future would be the responsible thing to do before starting a family."

"My spouse is in the military, and although I would like to say with certainty that I will be living in the same place three years from now, there is no guarantee. I am glad you asked this question because I wanted to discuss any opportunities within PPD where I could be useful but may not be obligated for several years until we know if he will be able to stay in one place."

With a CRO, if you anticipate a move or other significant change, you may still be offered employment but within a project that fits your time frame. Either way, focus on being honest with the interviewer. This will be beneficial to both you and PPD.
