What is a Non compete agreement?
A non-compete clause or covenant not to compete(CNC), is a term used in contractunder which one party (usually an employee) agrees not to pursue a similar profession or trade in competition against another party (usually the employer).Often, a non-compete agreement is used to prevent an employee from quitting and going to work for a competitor. Usually, non-compete provisions are often 6 - 12 months long.Whether a non-compete is valid and enforceable varies from state to state. For example, California rarely finds such agreements valid.

Can i work in same industry if I lost my job for poor performance and signed a non-compete?
Non-compete agreements are not generally very enforceable but the law varies from state-to-state. I would recommend checking with the states labor office or an attorney before assuming that it can not be enforced. That said, most of the time termination for poor performance is usually treated as a lay-off. That is because poor performance is not necessarily within the employees control. The economy or bad luck for example can contribute to poor performance. Showing up late to work or not following reasonable job requirements however can be considered poor performance but a "with cause" termination. If you were terminated without cause, it is highly unlikely that any court would consider a non-compete agreement with a former employer to be enforceable.
