“So what are your career goals in five years?”
This question has become something I’ve learned to loathe. I loathe it because it’s confining and I loathe it because I don’t know.
In every job interview, you go on you will hear this question. I understand the purpose of being goal oriented. I am goal oriented. I am hardworking and ambitious but that does not mean I have a clear plan for where I see myself in five years. I don’t even have a clear plan on what career I want in five years. Instead of expecting people to know who they want to be or worse, should be in five years, perhaps we should focus on helping them in this moment, this day figure out how they want to start.
Next time some one asks you what you want to be doing in five years, you should say exactly what you wrote in this post! Totally understand where you’re coming from 🙂

well, my lady, you do know yourself, but they don’t! so, you’d have to explain to them, as to how you’re and what you’re capable of, and how you think, a couple of times. it’s a struggle, but it’s worth it!
