One of my least favourite interview questions is, "What's your five year plan?" It's primarily unsettling to me because I don't always know the intent behind the question. What is the answer my interviewer wants to hear from me? If I fail to answer in favor of what they want to hear, will I not get the job? Am I supposed to say, "My five year plan is to be here, at this company, thriving?" How do I know where I'll be in the next five years?
