One year from now, 5 years from now or even 10 years from now, where do you see your career at? The interviewer wants to know what motivates you and to what level you want to push yourself to. Let the interviewer know if you'd like to go back to school, work with a different population or even have your own practice. A feather in your hat would be to accomplish your goals at the agency you are applying to. This will tell the interviewer that you want to grow with them and you'll be around awhile.
