I'm in those shoes. I still won't interview anyone who left their previous company over an inability to keep their religious/political beliefs away from work.

It's a double whammy if the person in question left because they couldn't proselytise to their co-workers.

What if they left because it’s clear the company has a leadership/hr problem? Or the 6 months pay? Ect

How will you be able to tell why they left without interviewing them?

Well, if I'm unable to tell why they left then they clearly aren't preaching their personal beliefs to the world, are they?
