I have no clue but I’d sway on the side of not using anything that might show up positive. And keep in mind I’m not a goodie goodie 😂

No drug tests are required, but may be if your client requires. Note to others, don’t lie to your Managers if you won’t pass either. Eye roll, we will find out.

I’ve had people tell me they weren’t a fit for a project due to the drug test requirement. I didn’t staff them on the project and didn’t do anything further. I make sure and tell people that drug tests are a requirement for a particular client but not for Protiviti. I think drug use is your business and Protiviti does NOT require drug testing. You could decline to take a drug test just because you didn’t feel like taking it.

Protiviti does not require drug tests, but many of clients in financial services (and other industries) do. If you do not wish to take a drug test, you will not be able to work on those clients and you will have to tell Protiviti you do not wish to take a drug test. Drug tests once you take them are good for 2-3 years though...

I had a drug test when I joined the firm

That’s odd because Protiviti (at least in the US) does not require drug testing. Perhaps it was also for a specific client requirement... people aren’t always good about explaining that it is not required.

I’ve had 2 drug tests tied to clients that required it; did not have a test when I joined.

*Should add that those tests were when there wasn’t more widespread legalization. I think if you find yourself being proposed for a project that requires drug testing and you have a good relationship with your md or the project md you can discreetly be removed for the most part to avoid a test fail.

No, unless you go to a client that requires drug tests.

Update: required client screening

<sigh> any links to a singles bowl?

Has anybody had experience where they knew they wouldn’t pass? My friend was just told that they would be getting a drug test for a client and knows that he will fail.

Just don’t lie that you will pass. Bc those results will come back. Then, it’s a question of your honesty. Just ask to be put on another project.

Need advice, my brother and his wife have a three month old and aren't the most cautious parents with my nephew. Yesterday, my SIL was giving him a bath and just left him in the tub on the counter to go run upstairs for something. Granted, the water came up to his chest and his head was angled out of the tub, bit still. Also, they leave him on the couch and walk away. I'm worried that when he starts rolling over he'll fall off because they will have developed this bad habit...

Hello everyone. I interviewed at Google last month and was rejected after the 2nd interview (non-tech role). I will definitely apply again after 6-12 months but since I didn’t make it to the on-site round, how likely are the chances that Google will reach out to me again in the near future?

I will also appreciate referrals at FAANG companies (non-tech business roles). My most recent role has been of an Executive (early professional stage). Thank you :)
