If someone asked me the question - where do you see yourself 5 years from now?
20s answer - the usual gobbledegook about learning and working on marketing strategy blah blah blah
25s answer - learning and adapting to lead marketing teams and hitting strategic revenue goals
35s answer - getting to play football or swim 5 days a week, meeting friends every week, Travelling every 4-5 months, reading 4 books a month
Hoping to stay employed. Hoping to not loose all my hair and go fully bald. Hoping to not get any lifestyle diseases. Hoping to not completely wreck my back. Hoping to not give up on life. Hoping to keep learning and stay updated with development in tech. Hoping to not live a life filled with shame, regret, anxiety, bankruptcy, worry, self hatred, lifestyle diseases, medical bills, begging for job, begging for respect and hoping for quick, easy and painless death.
That's what I want to see myself when I'm 35 after screwing up my 20s by not upskiling, not learning, not switching jobs quicker than Leonardo Di Caprio switches his girl friends, not taking risks, not working on myself, not eating healthy, not going to therapy, not valuing friendships, relationships & emotions.
I am a perfect example of disaster, failure, wrecked career, useless life and a burden on earth...
Maybe working as a teacher or opening a cafe in hill stations like Manali or Shimla. Because I'm fed up with metro city life. Now I want peace and a job that offers work life balance.
Since there is no job security majority of them will be jobless or no less paid no one would prefer to go to a hill station and spend as their pocket does not allow. Do something else
I'm 28 got my desired job, setup a financial wall around my family currently donot have a wife. Next 5 years plan to invest in my ancestral area move back there and leave corporate not my thing I need people around me, people whom I can trust and not have fake connections.
If a partner comes down the line I will propose this lifestyle if she's not interested then good, I have a plan to compete in kushti and learn Indian martial arts.
And I also think I will be building a 2bhk house on my own that's a big plan but I'm learning stuff slowly. I just want to be that cool single uncle who you meet during family gathering 😄
Absolutely 💯 Sounds Amazing!
I thailand, surfing durinf day time. Doing hookers and cocaine in night time.
In my best shape and muscular. Getting to play cricket almost daily with my friends. Working on something challenging enough to emerge my brain into. Having loads of money, settled somewhere in nature maybe in Goa or Europe
I have given many interviews in my life, but the one thing common in every interview is asking where do you see yourself in 5 years. And I have no idea how to answer this question. I have experienced this multiple times when the intervie...
I recently was asked this question by a very senior person in my organisation. I have 5yrs of work-ex but still not sure what's my ultimate calling..so want to know if people once they start working figure it out or just lie through
Today I was interviewing a firm and the HR asked me this typical question. But let me tell you that in the last 6 years I have interviewed more than 200 companies but I have been asked this question only twice.
