3. Where do you see yourself in ten years?
Why the Interviewer Asks This Question
The interviewers are curious about your long-term career goals to see how they can support you during your residency. If you are interested in pursuing a fellowship, they want to know your sub-specialty. Or perhaps your goal is to work as a pediatric pharmacist in a children's hospital or work in research. Let the interviewers know your career goals and why you chose them. Then, describe where you see yourself in ten years.
