What are your career goals ?

This is a, very frequently asked question in the HR round. When you answer this question make sure you give realistic answers. For example a person with 1 year of experience cannot say I would see myself as a Project Manager in the next 3 years.

Every organisation has a career path and we have to spend the required time at each level, learn the stuff what it takes to get it to the next level and move on. Hence set your expectations realistic.
Next 2-3 years to become a senior developer.
Next 3-5 years to become a team lead. 

Also, let the interviewer know that in terms of my future career path, you are confident that if you do your work with excellence, opportunities will come your way and you will be able to achieve your career goals.

The same question can also be asked as, Where do you see yourself in the next 3 to 5 years from now.
