  • 8. Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

      How to Answer

      Don't look at this question as a trap, the interviewer is just looking to make sure you aren't just staying around for a few months. There is no expectation that your answer will be that this is your forever dream job.

      You don't want to lie during the interviewer, so if the position isn't something that you can see yourself in forever, you can talk about how you hope to grow within a company. If staying with this company and becoming their Recreation Director is something that interests you, you should definitely mention that.

      Stephanie's Feedback

      That's wonderful that you're hoping to continue your education and find a professional opportunity where you can stay and grow. To strengthen your response, I'd suggest explicitly naming the core values that resonate with you (Example: I share X Company's core values of honesty and compassion; this shows up in my work daily.") Additionally, if you were to stay at this company for five years, are you able to share what your hoped-for growth trajectory would look like?
