I would assume they do. Most major companies tend to have some sort of drug testing policy in place.
Fingerprint background check and hair follicle test.
Hair follicle test?
Seems a little bit excessive/expensive.
It's actually a full blood cleansing test where they drain out all your blood and run it through a huge blender of vitamins and other illegal substance building drugs. Then they dump it all back in your body. Those who are not capable or have done drugs before will die from this procedure. Those who are strong enough will live and be accepted into the firm as bankers.
Either that or you can run a search and realize its a pee test everywhere. Try to pick up a sense of humor too.
Drugs are detectable in your hair long after you stop using because it gets woven into the strand. There's some shampoo you can get online if you shop around - had a buddy in college use it to pass the drug test.
Of course the best bet is not to do drugs in the first place. Honestly if it was just pot I would own up to it.
