This is why good interviewers will not ask for the information, will not write it down or use it in other ways if volunteered, and might even discourage the candidate from discussing such things. This is not a straightforward problem, and transparency will not always make things easier on the company. | |

Certainly, however, I agree that sneaking in and demanding to stay is not a good idea, even if it might be legal. | |
