This question is a slight variation of the typical interview question, 'Where do you see yourself in five years?' Instead, the interviewer may ask more directly, 'Where do you see yourself in the next year?'
Interviewing, hiring, and onboarding is an expensive and time-consuming endeavor for any company. Scholastic wants to know that, if engaged, you will see this as a longer-term fit. Discuss your career plans, goals, and how those fit with what they are offering. Describe your passion for this opportunity, and what you like about Scholastic.

"One year from now I would like to be well versed in your publishing operations, and be leading a team. Perhaps having a few new hires, I would also like to see myself making an impact on your company's employee retention rate. Scholastic holds such longevity in the publishing industry, and I look forward to contributing to this 100-year track record."
