Hr Told Me I Can’t Accept A Job From Their Client’s Client Company Due To Their Non Compete Agreement. I Never Signed A Non Compete Agreement.

I work for a company who’s client is x and x company has client y. The company I work for told me that I would have to wait one year to be able to accept an offer from x or y company even though my contract actually doesn’t state a non compete agreement (it just says that I can’t work another job simultaneously). The hr representative I spoke with told me it’s due to the contract they have with their client and the non compete agreement so I was deterred from looking further. Would this be true in this scenario? When I asked why I was never told of this requirement during my interview or the hiring process the HR representative said that it is common sense and that all contractors in New York are aware of this. I have looked through every document I signed and I do not see anything that mentions a 1 year clause or a non compete agreement. Thank you in advance to anyone that took the time to read this/ replied to this.
