> When I interview candidates I always bring up his book and ask: "If all this goes well and you come work for us, what's next for you after that? Where do you want to be positioned to go after you move on from here?"

If I had an interview and was asked that question, I would consider it an enormous red flag, and would either:

* Give you a vague, non-committal answer,

* Give you the answer I suspect you most want to hear (if possible), or

* Walk out.

How could you expect an honest answer to such a loaded question? Fully-loaded machine guns aren't as loaded as your question above.
