In support of the book, Winning Answers to 500 Interview Questions:
When do you plan to retire?
Why this question is being asked: To learn how long you plan to be on the job.
Strategy: Make it clear that your mind is on the job and that Retirement is nowhere in sight.
Sample answer: Does anyone really retire these days? Sitting on the beach all day sounds nice but that’s what vacations are for. I wouldn't be pursuing a new opportunity if retirement was anywhere in my mind. I plan to stay and grow in my new role for years to come.
