When Asked "What Is Your 5 Year Goal"
Five years is a long time. Best to break it down in two types of goals: short and long term.
Short examples:
1. apply my skills in all areas of the medical office (front and back)
2. sit for the national certification exam in (enter a date/month)
3. work closely with the doctor and medical office staff to gain valuable experience
Long examples:
1. stay current through professional memberships, workshops and seminars
2. look for the opportunity to move up within the organization
3. learn all I can about the profession to eventually go back to college (e.g. to get my degree, or become an RN)
