Are NYC banks still testing for THC?

Asking for a friend... To my understanding *most* firms in NYC can no longer test for THC, but I was wondering if anyone could confirm for NYC investment banks. Thank you!

Hmm.. so I should probably tell my friend it’s ok to smoke? Or for the risk I wonder if it’s just better for them to stop until they start in the summer

 

I would strongly steer away from providing advice like that - not that your friend is going to sue you if he falls afoul of testing but you just don't want to take any responsibility.  Think you're best off saying 'what I've heard is that they generally do not test anymore and that it's against the law to discriminate solely on the basis of a positive test, but you make your own decisions'
