I will be taking a drug test for Spectrum to work as a community sales rep. It’s in California and I know I have THC in my system from a week ago. Will this prevent my employment if i test positive?

It’s possible it might be gone from your system if say the test is 10 days from the time you took THC. Or traces might be minuscule.

My guess is they are not testing for THC.

I just took a pre-employment drug test recently and I was told they weren’t testing for Marijuana because it’s legal in many States. But that’s up to the employer.

Are they using a 3rd party background check company to coordinate all this? You should be able to verify what drugs they are testing for.

Do they care if you have THC in your system?

Most don’t care, especially a company like Spectrum.

"tech sales"

Hate to say it, but they (spectrum) do care. And there are ways you can clear from your system.
