I've never heard of an investment bank testing hair. If they pride themselves on a "drug-free culture" that probably just means that may have random drug testing on a more frequest basis (at my bank its once and done).

Really?! I have never heard of this happening in Europe.....can anyone confirm?
I have friends who work in IB in Paris and London and most of them have simply never been drug tested. I'd imagine it would be a bit more common at US banks in the UK, however for the most part people were surprised when they came here and were asked for a drug test.
It's generally not legal to drug test employees outside the US unless being impaired on the job could results in high risks to other (ie. airline pilots, heavy machinery operators, etc can get tested, but not most people).
Not do any drugs? Seems easy enough.
Obviously...
But if the drugs have already been done and will not be done again....
Does anyone else have info on this? I'd really appreciate it.
Are you fairly sure that you'll test positive?
I am assuming they haven't tested you for drugs yet, so it seems easy enough not to do drugs. I don't understand why you are worrying over it unless you're an addict.....or are you?
They don't hair test. Just urine test.
urine should be the standard for most banks
