"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.
