The interviewer is looking to see what your professional goals are in the next five years. They want to know if you are ambitious and have set realistic goals for yourself. They are also looking to see how long you plan on working for their organization. It is expensive to hire new employees, and they want to make sure you plan on staying with their company. If there is room for advancement within the organization, they want to see what you have set your sights on.

"In the next five years, I see myself completing a nursing program and working as a registered nurse for your organization. I like that your company has room for growth and advancement, and there are many more opportunities with a nursing degree. I am narrowing down my search for a nursing program and expect to be starting in the fall."
