I walked away from a company I really wanted to work for because the terms of their interview NDA were "everything and forever." IANAL, but I did take an IP law class when I was in graduate school, and I recall the professor saying that one of the key takeaways from the Listerine case is that any lawyer who allows their client to enter into contract with no term limit is basically incompetent. I lived outside California, and tech workers in my state had been successfully enjoined by a former employer on multiple occasions. I wasn't about to put my ability to earn a living in jeopardy.

I made it a few interviews into the loop while steadfastly refusing to sign the NDA, and I even told the recruiter that I objected to the scope of the contract. The recruiter indicated that they had absolutely no leeway on the NDA, and it was "take it or leave it." So after passing several interviews in the loop with flying colors, I called off the remainder of the interviews. They freaked out because I had been doing so well and wanted to know why on earth I wouldn't at least let them draw up an offer. "Your NDA is inequitable" was my responses, which really seemed to confuse them, because they were so used to tech workers dreaming of stock options in states with more worker-friendly legal environments like California just signing whatever they shoved at them. Their recruiting department still had the nerve to pester me a couple of times to sign the NDA after I terminated the interviews because I objected to the NDA.

*Edit: I previously called California a "right-to-work" state, which is something I've heard a lot of people say, but I guess it's not technically correct.
