This ridiculous clause in what I was told was a “simple non disclosure agreement”. They tried to stitch me up for 5 years..

I was told over the phone by a prospective employer that I needed to sign this document, which they described as 'just a simple non-disclosure agreement' concerning course content. It turns out, however, they want to prevent me from working for any competing company for five years. Can you believe this is for a near-minimum wage role as a tutor in a primary school tutoring company?! What a joke. I spent two hours of my life observing one of their tutoring sessions as an interview/trial. This has to be against some kind of law. Is anyone familiar? (Sydney, Australia)
