Hi everyone,
I am new to the forum, so hope that everyone can help me on this issue. I am graduating this December and had an offer at my intern place in summer. I just got my employment contract last week to review before I actually sign on my start-date which is Jan 2. Really excited to start but one of the terms in the contract bugged me is the non-compete agreement. The term restricts me from working for any projective competitors/clients of the firm 2 years after my termination. Within the restrictive period, if i want to continue working in the accounting field, I need to find a job that is 50miles radius away from the firm's main office. I really do not know what to do as I am fresh out of college and starting my career. I do not know if the agreement is enforceable. I really appreciate if anyone can give me any advice/insight how I should response for this situation.
Thanks a lot
