A short interview excerpt from the YouTube video "The Power of Degree Apprenticeships in Building Future Leaders" (uploaded by Tim Davies) in which an early-career interviewee describes uncertain five-to-ten year plans: intending to pursue a part-time Master's (likely in IT/software engineering/computer science) after finishing a degree apprenticeship, keeping options open thereafter, and expressing a desire to do a PhD at some point.

So you're very early in your career. What are your aspirations over the next five to ten years? Great question. Short answer I don't really know. Long answer. After I finish my degree apprenticeship I likely want to do a Master's degree probably part time, so working well pretty much it's going to be similar working full time doing the master's part time, probably something to do with it or software engineering or computer science etc. After that I don't really know. I think I like to go the flow. I like to see where life takes me. I'm sure later on down the line I'm going to find specific niches that I really am fond of and I think those are the ones that I'll pursue but I don't quite know what they are yet. And I want to do a PhD as well in the future. Again, not sure what on. I definitely want to do one.
