At some point during your interview, your interviewer will be looking to gauge what your career goals are, and this question allows them the opportunity to do so. Prior to your interview, it will be essential for you to do some research on the airline you are interviewing with to learn more about their career progression ladder and where Operations Agents typically can be promoted to within the organization. With a lot of airlines, Operations Agents are often groomed and promoted into more senior levels of management. But, you also need to walk a very fine line of showing motivation to grow while also being committed to the role you are interviewing for.
