WestJet wants to hire those that they can train, mold, and grow into long-term employees. Is this particular position a good fit? Is it a step up in your career or - a stagnant move that you are just complacent with taking until something better comes along? Assure the interviewer that this position will be challenging for you, is a step up in responsibilities, and that it fits with your overall career goals.

Align with what I feel are qualities I own and are values that make the workplace culture extraordinary. I also appreciate that the company values its employees and is willing to invest in and share the collective success with its people. I want to contribute my energy and passion into the company that believes in overcoming challenges, pursuing excellence, and has a strong belief in teamwork. I want to become a Westjetter because I am responsible, safety driven, and make the right decisions at the right time. There are many growth opportunities within the airline and when hired, I will be able to meet my immediate, short term, and long term goals within a growing, successful company.

Overall, your answer is well crafted and has energy! It seems the first sentence was cut off at the beginning, so I have improvised in the example below. When it comes to your career goals (the base of the question), be sure to offer up specifics where you mention immediate, short term, and long term goals.
