Does Jefferies Drug Test?
Title says it all. Joining JEF as SA this summer, do they drug test, particularly for the good ol devil's lettuce?
Went a bit too hard on that weed recently and hit the paranoia phase lol

Yes they do a hair follicle test
Can confirm. Hair follicle test for all incoming analysts and summers.
Fr they do hair follicle ?
Bruhhh ain’t no way, that would be so wild. It’s over for me💀
Lmao same
did you find out?
Shave that fucking head dude lol, like super clean. Best way to avoid the follicule.
So they switch to saliva and you’re fine. Sorry for your look.
Shave that fucking head bro, like real clean shaved. They will have to switch to a saliva and you’re fine
Sorry for your look lol.
Shave your head
They absolutely DO NOT use hair follicle tests. The people saying otherwise are fucking with you because they’re virgins. I have no idea if Jefferies tests or not, but, if you get a surprise test, I’d recommend Quick Fix. They likely don’t test, as most banks have moved away from it, but stay safe.
Probably makes sense to reach out to sage Kelly on this one
They test
DM everyone's favorite Dick Handler and ask him.
If you're in NYC it is illegal to test for weed
Most banks have moved to not testing, or just testing for hard drugs, but assuming you're in NYC you are 100% fine
Quick question: does this mean if you’re interning in New York they don’t test, or if you’re physically located in NYC at the time of the test they don’t test for weed. I’m not in NYC and I’m curious. Thanks.

No drug test for any of the jefferies offices last year.
The law is just for NYC interns/employees - the test happens well in advance of the internship fyi (think like April/May) but I'd be surprised if any bank still tests just their regional office employees. Typically when NYC makes this kind of move the banks follow it everywhere
I didn’t go through drug testing as an SA last year.
More general not just Jefferies but curious on background check.
When do they reach out for background check to old employers? Before offer or before starting?
I got the urine drug test. I don’t know any coworkers that got the hair follicle test.
what about new analyst or incoming interns?
Literally just pissed in a cup for these people an entire month before the internship
Do they test for THC?
They do blood tests in London
They did a hair follicle test for me but asked for pubes
I had made it all the way to my orientation as a summer analyst with no drug test. Then I saw Rich Handler at a networking event after training and we did a few bumps in the bathroom at the bar. HR called me in for a "random" screen the next morning.
Alright. Let's get a straight answer here. Are they testing incoming SA for THC?
They do a urine test
