Definitely agree that the focus should be advancement but it should be from old job to new job rather than from new job to new job. Internal promotion opportunities are important and companies will want to be seen to offer them, but they also are reluctant to hire someone to a role if that person already has their eye on the next role.

I agree that the goal shouldn't be a race to advancement, but investigating the possibility as well as the companies track record on promoting from within should be weighed in the applicants decision to take the job or not. Just my opinion though.
