Where would you like to be in 5 years?
"Where would you like to be in 5 years?"
"Where do you see yourself five years from now?"
"五年內您想做到什么職位?"
對于面試者來說，這是個很棘手的問題，但它卻很受主考官的青睞。因為，主考官想通過您對這個問題的回答，來了解您對未來發展的計劃，更重要的是，判斷您的計劃是否切實可行，是否跟該公司未來的發展計劃相一致。
對這個問題，您可以先給出您的目標：
"I would like to follow the management career path"
"我想沿著管理這條路走下去。"
"I would like to try the secretary career track"
"我想嘗試秘書工作。"
您還可以給自己提出更高的要求，當然，這種要求一定得是您通過努力能夠達到的，這一點，您一定要"心中有數"：
"I'd like to be a senior manager of your company in five years."
"我想在五年內成為貴公司的高級經理。"
或者：
"Although it's certainly difficult to predict things far into the future, I know what direction I want to develop toward. Within five years, I would like to become one of the best engineers in your company."
"預測未來當然是不容易的，但我清楚自己的發展方向。我想在五年內成為貴公司最好的工程師之一。"
您還可以說：
"I would like to become the expert that others rely upon. And in doing so, I feel I will be fully prepared to take on any greater responsibilities that might be presented in the long term."
"我想成為別人可以依賴的專家。為此，我要作好充分的準備，以便在未來可以擔負起更大的責任。"
除了個人的發展外，如果您能向主考官表明您會給公司帶來進步的話，更能打動主考官：
"In five years I want to be a valuable part of this company and help it to reach its goal. I also want to manage a challenging project and bring in latest technology that will benefit the company."
"未來的五年里，我想成為貴公司里有價值的一員，并希望幫助公司實現目標。我還想經營一個富有挑戰性的項目，引進最新的技術，給公司帶來效益。"
如果您的經驗還不夠充分，可以在"好學"這方面展示自己，比如您可以向主考官表示在他們公司里，您能學到很多東西，而且，您很愿意在該公司發展自身：
"In the next five years, I want to learn new things, gain more experience and increase my value to your company. I want to learn my job well and eventually to achieve a position of higher responsibility within your company."
"未來的五年里，我想學到新東西、獲得更多的經驗，增加我對在貴公司的價值。我想將業務做得很精通，最終能夠在貴公司挑起更重的擔子。"
您還要給主考官一個感覺：您樂意在該公司長期干下去：
"In the next five years, I will not plan on moving or going back to school, I want to stay with this company for many years, and expect I would be very happy with this job."
"在未來的五年里，我不打算換工作或回到學校學習，我想在貴公司工作較長的時間，也希望工作得很愉快。"
這樣，主考官放心了，因為每個公司都不想讓自己辛苦培養出來的熟練員工很快就離開公司，這樣可是要浪費公司大量的培訓費用的。
