So, how do you answer, “Where do you see yourself in five years?”
This can feel like a bit of a trick question, because sometimes the answer is, “not in this job,” or, “in your job,” or something like, “at a bigger better opportunity elsewhere.” But none of those are things you want to say to a hiring manager.
The person asking you this question doesn't want to know what you want to become but what he wants to know is what sort of person you are.
You can be honest while still telling them what they want to know. Do you have realistic expectations for your career? Are you ambitious? And does this particular position align with your growth and goals overall?
The answer you will give should be the answer that satisfies you!
you are doing all of this for yourself and nobody else. you are going to earn for the satisfaction of your needs and nobody else's.
what if this position you are interviewing for is not a one-way ticket to your professional aspirations? It’s okay to say you don’t know what the future holds, but you see how this experience could help in making that decision.
Growing up I realized that as we were working to make ourselves better at things we didn't end up making ourselves better but what we did was made just made ou Resumes better! Individually we lack.
We lack Comfort We lack Emotions We lack Courage
Ask yourself what if everything you said in this answer you have accomplished will you be able to face yourself and say it to yourself that you are proud of yourself? Will all your Psychological needs be fulfilled? If the answer is to this question is yes then yes your plans your answers are right but what if the answer is NO?
Think as much as you can and you will have your answer to this question about your 5-year plan!
Also, in the next 5 years, I see myself in my Mother's Comfort, my Father's Hardwork, my Sister's Courage, my Bestfriend's Laughter because all these things keep me going!
and as soon as I accomplish these I will surely be able to achieve my dreams.
