Whether this job will be the candidate's starting job in the news industry or they have taken other jobs before, the candidate must have some ultimate goal they are hoping to achieve. This gives the hiring manager an idea of who the candidate plans to strive to emulate and what kinds of skills they hope to develop in the job. The candidate should discuss these skills they hope to improve upon to reach this final goal down the line.
