Hello all,

I recently received a job offer from a small company for which my background is a good fit, but the offer letter I have yet to sign contains a clause that I find concerning.

In summary, the clause specifies that for the duration of my (potential upcoming) employment and 18 months after leaving the company in the future, I need to inform the company if I've been in touch with any other recruiters and provide their contact information. Additionally, I am supposed to send any recruiters or hiring managers a copy of this current agreement document when communicating with them. If I were to accept a new job during my (potential) employment or 18 months post-termination I have to inform my employer as well alongside sending them the new company contact information.

My understanding is this would make it more or less impossible for me to look into other job opportunities while currently employed, unless I notified my employer of each opportunity that came my way. Additionally, if this potential job doesn't end on ideal terms, it seems like a liability to send the contact info of each recruiter to the company from which I was terminated. I am situated in MA and this potential employer is also based in MA. Would this clause be legally enforceable?
