Schlumberger
Looking for some advice. I'm getting a part time role with a former boss at slb. Im taking a drug test next week and of course, theres a hair sample. I smoked in colorado last month so itll show on hair (not the urine). Any idea how big a red flag this is? I'll be consulting for them remotely, aka no heavy machinery usage. We're incredibly close but unsure how much that matters for this.

Unfortunately, Schlumberger is extremely strict. I can get fired for taking my prescribed medication if they are out of date.

If you smoked a month ago, seems like you could just shave all your body hair down to half an inch?

I hired someone that wore a shaved head and they just took the sample from his arm hair. I don't think this is a work around and unfortunately a fail is a fail regardless of the role your hiring on for....

My understanding is that they don’t differentiate by role, it’s a blanket policy; ie, it won’t matter whether you’re operating anything or sitting at a desk.

Unfortunately if you deny the test you won’t be eligible to be hired there. Would be better to roll the dice by taking the hair test and if results show marijuana (and company cares about that) to explain that you consumed a small amount in a state where that was legal a couple months ago. If you refuse the test, there’s a 100% chance of not getting the job.
