Asking is a possibility. Looking at whom they've employed in the past...If I am not mistaken, someone at some point compiled a list of Newcomer-friendly businesses. ...For what sort of work are you searching?

If you have the expertise you claim, it's highly likely that they'll try to recruit you - and they shall offer significant recompense if you agree. I know nothing about your character, but I know that most would be tempted. Do not allow yourself to be so.

I wasn't about to leave her out there alone. I heard there's all sorts of -- well -- beasts out there.
