This is the usual question being asked during interviews if you will be applying for a job. I will just share what I have answered during my interview on a supervisory level.
Five years from now is still a long way to go for me. I will see myself still here working in your renowned company and been able to have the growth I always dreamed having. I can see myself sitting on a managerial chair wherein I am having my team of supervisors and be able to address any kind of issues regarding work. I can also see myself as a great asset to the company by sharing all the knowledge and great talents that I have and made sure I contributed a lot of good points to the organization. I will also see myself as a great contributor to the success of the company wherein I am able to add or developed schemes that have added to the company's big profit. I will also make sure that all the people I have handled will all be successful because I have shared to them a lot of great advices.
That is how I perceive myself five years from now working in this great company.

5 years from now would be my second year as a lawyer. By then I would have established a good name, at least in the law firm or tax consultancy firm where I work in and its clients. I'd also be expecting a promotion, of maybe an offer from another firm, or maybe I'd be close to opening my own. Also by then, I'd be married and about to give birth to my first baby. =)

Well this would not be a good interview answer since it is not a job related answer but in 5 years I see myself sending my second child off to college.
. My oldest will have gone to college the year before.. I will still have one at home who will be 11 at that time. I hope to be making a decent income writing on the internet. At this time I might go and get a part time job maybe something for a couple of days like being a lunch lady or something like that where I can be home with my son when there is no school. I hope to travel a bit more at that time, maybe going to motorcycle rallies with my husband. Nothing too exciting. we will still be 15 years away from retirement unless we get lucky and my husband can retire early.
