Why would they want to hire someone who clearly can't keep his/her mouth shut?
There's no reason to reveal client names, and you wouldn't be expected to
I've heard it even looks bad on you if you reveal names. Shows lack of professionalism
D1 - I'd say I'm revealing you all client and confidential data from a competitor for your benefit and would give you a pinky swear to not do the same to you in the future. You can trust me, I have an innocent face.
I once let a client's name slip by accident in an interview, but I was being grilled on my experience and I got flustered while trying to explain a particularly complex element of a model I had worked on. I immediately realized my mistake, turned bright red, and apologized. I got the job. But that was obviously a slip up...intentional name drops are huge no-nos. If you want to show off, you can be vague about categories like "I worked with a Fortune 100 consumer goods company on X type of project" without giving away any major identifying details
Non-competes are pretty standard, so I'd be surprised if you were asked to violate one
If I were interviewing with you that'd be an automatic reason for rejecting you. How can I trust you to keep my firm's clients private if you couldn't do it previously?
After I interviewed the partner reached back out to me to talk relationships and the clients I worked on.... after I got the job.
It's not a big deal. We all mostly share the same clients unless it's an independence issue. Not like you are revealing anything confidential.
No, and they won't ask you...well, they shouldn't. If they ask you for client names, that's a red flag.
How is it a red flag? I've got asked to leverage previous contacts that I have had before from previous clients. It makes sense from a relationship stand point.
It's a red flag because the interviewer should know better than to ask. Unprofessional of them to put you in that situation.
No. If you do it now, you'll do it again later.
