Anyone asked to perform a drug test before offer in industry? I use cannabis multiple times a week b/c I have an auto immune disease and it helps me deal with symptoms.

Similar situation. Unreal it’s legal for companies to do this.

Yes. Took a few weeks off and pissed clean.

I just accepted an industry position and it does not require a drug test. However, they are in Colorado so a bit different. I’d go under the assumption that if it’s a established conservative type company, then they may drug test. If it’s a newer more liberal company, then probably not.

Yep I had to for an industry job I started a month ago. I purposely scheduled my second round interview as far back as I could push it, and again gave some bs about being out of town for a week before I could come get the paperwork for the drive test. In total I was able to make it just over a month with no smoking and I passed. It’s nuts, I’m in California.

Yep, makes sense. Most manufacturing companies are old school. I had an offer a couple years ago from a manufacturing company in the Midwest and they wanted to drug test as well.

I had to do a drug test before an industry job in California. It was required to be taken within 24-48 hours of signing my offer letter and other employment documents if I remember correctly.

If you have a medicard, some states have made it illegal for companies to rescind an offer due to cannabis use.

Also asked to do a drug test within 7 days after I accepted the offer, but it is a leading PE firm in NYC

I’m going crazy in Audit, I’m an A2. I think I’m going to try and transition to consulting. Would it be smarter to stay within the firm or go to a new one, and is there a half-step I should take (such as going to TAS for a year or so) before going into consulting? I just want more exposure to companies I work on than just the audit, it doesn’t feel like stuff I’ll be using in 5 years (but I’d be happy to be proven wrong on that). Business strategy/biz dev is catching my interest recently.
