This question was previously asked in
TNPSC Group 2 2026 Prelims Question Paper (01-Nov-2026)
The correct answer is

By next year, she will have been working at the company for five years.

The Future Perfect Continuous Tense describes an action that will have been going on for a period of time up to a point in the future. Its structure is subject + will/shall + have been + present participle (verb + -ing), usually with “for” or “since” to mark the duration.

“By next year, she will have been working at the company for five years” follows exactly this pattern: “will have been working” shows the work continuing over five years up to the future point “next year”.

“She shall have worked” uses have + past participle without “been … -ing”, which is the Future Perfect Tense. “She will work” is the Simple Future Tense. “She will be working” is the Future Continuous Tense, which shows an action in progress at a future moment but does not show duration up to that moment.

By next year, she will have been working at the company for five years. option is correct.
