Would you hire someone who told you in a job interview that they were saving money to start up a business that would be in competition with yours?
This question came up on another forum the other day. The people on that forum run screen printing and embroidery shops. One guy was asking what he should tell prospective employers since he already did that sort of work on the side and hoped to open his own shop someday.
I said, if it were me, I'd appreciate knowing. I'd also want to be sure he wouldn't steal my customers or my techniques, so I'd want an agreement in place so that couldn't happen without penalty.
How would the rest of you handle it? Would you hire the guy?
