Career Aim Question:

Recruiters or managers look for your ability to manage your own goals and also want to gain some insight on your short-term/long-term goals. When answering this question keep in mind that the long-term goals you talk about are not the personal goals but those career goals which relates to or somewhat identifying closely to the offered position/division's objectives or perhaps the overall vision of the company.
While answering this question also keep in mind that you would/could be asked for the short term projections as well. Your short-term and long-term goals must be on similar lines and not totally divergent else cross-grilling and consecutively dishonest statements could result from your side.
