I've always said something along the lines of

"Hopefully here, as I'd prefer to work hard for a company that values me, instead of moving around constantly."

Doesn't have to be true, but companies love it when you come across as someone who will "stick it out" and seem uninterested in job hopping.

Note, if that's why they hire you, absolutely keep looking for better compensation because they'll never hand it over.

Embellish the fuck out of your resume with your current roles, and apply for jobs a level (or two depending on experience/abilities) above your current experience.
