A job where I'm challenged and fulfilled"...talk about aspects of jobs that you like...some should match the job that you're interviewing for...some don't have to....you can mention flexibility, working for a good company...things like that.

As far as the Where do you want to be in 5 years...you can say...
In the next five years I’d like to see myself here advancing to the next level or at least learning new things and taking on new responsibilities if at all possible.” Or if it’s a job where learning and advancement are not the goal, then a simple ” I’m happiest when I feel that I’m an essential part of the company I work for – hopefully this one. In the next five years (and hopefully more) I plan to take advantage of whatever opportunities are available – but mostly, I want to do the best I can and know that I’m making a difference.”

I hope this helps - i interview people for a living.
This was very helpful and wonderful advice. Thank you for sharing.
