Based on the most helpful WSO content, drug testing policies can vary by firm and location. However, in NYC, drug tests for marijuana have been largely prohibited for most employers since May 2020 due to new legislation. This means firms like HL (Houlihan Lokey) and Lincoln International in NYC are unlikely to test for THC.
For Chicago, there isn't specific information in the WSO dataset about these firms' drug testing policies, but it's worth noting that drug testing practices can differ by state and company. If you're concerned, it might be best to avoid THC until you have clarity from the firm or HR.

Lincoln doesn't care about thc, they only care about anything harder than that
