Hi All, My sister has done Computer Science engineering Bachelor degree and has 5 years of work experience in India. She is applying for MBA at https://www.kenan-flagler.unc.edu/programs/mba/full-time-mba/ and https://kelley.iu.edu/programs/full-time-mba/academics/majors-minors/marketing.html. Her overall goal is to get into Software Product management. Any suggestions if any of these MBA’s can open path in the desired space or if she is better of doing an MS in Comp engg. to further develop deeper Technology skills. Thanks

I doubt it. My last drug test for a job (about 7 months ago) tested for much harder drugs.
Check your state laws. Some states protect you now from this.
From what I understand and have been told by recruiters, companies aren’t really looking for pot anymore. It’s more-so narcotics, and I’m pretty sure they’re just concerned whether a large amount is detected that would impede the candidate’s ability to do their job effectively.
A lot of people smoke pot recreationally and have well-respected and lucrative jobs at great companies, especially in tech. I’ve worked in tech for about 7 years and a lot of my coworkers smoke. I smoke pot every day (not during work hours obvi, SOMETIMES I might have a puff in the morning hours before I start work 🙃 lol). So I’d be fckd if that were actually still a thing.
I really wouldn’t worry about it, but yes, look into it to be on the safe side :)
Also depends on the type of work. If your job offer is with a defense contractor pot is still not allowed because federally it is illegal. We’ve lost some very good candidates because they live in a state where pot is legal and have chosen to partake.
I would be surprised if they were checking for pot. But if they are, they sound to uptight to work for anyway,
How did this end up playing out for you OP?
