Any mention of this to the owner falls on deaf ears. As well, he has pretty much disengaged himself from the business, and doesn't even advertise. I almost think he's using the place as a tax write off.

Exactly what I would say, point out also, zero potential to move up, The company ladder is more of a step stool. Your looking for a lift to the iss

NEVER shit talk your past employment situations, regardless of how shitty that they may've been.

It is classless and will fall on deaf and supremely uninterested ears.

Save that type of chatter for your friends and family. ;)

"Why did you leave/Why are you leaving your most recent job?"

"It's a great company, and I thoroughly enjoyed my time there, but unfortunately I've hit a hard-cap as it pertains to advancement, so I'm currently seeking positions that offer opportunities for growth."

Doesn't that kind of imply that the company you're looking at has opportunities for growth? What if the position you're applying to, you know, doesn't.

Not necessarily. If you're really worried about it, you can always add a "personal" in there.

No company is ever going to say: "Sorry but we're all done growing now, so there'll be no room for advancement here." Additionally, good HR personnel are always looking to trade up. If they get a really attractive candidate (professionally) they'll snatch them up in a heartbeat.

I am looking for challenges that will help to fully utilize my skills. Then list the skills, and how you'd like to use them. Tell them the company you are currently with is great, but capped, as it is very small, and no room for movement exists. Ask how they see your skill set, per your resume, helping their organization.
