I have an offer from a firm that says my "offer is contingent on my passing of a drug test"? I am just curious as to when firms typically drug test incoming SA's. Within a week of signing? A month? a month prior to start date? Thank you!

Do the NY IB's still drug test?
good question, I would love to hear people's thoughts
My BB didn't drug test. Only criminal background check.
Usually they’ll tell you when. My firm told me a testing facility will reach out within 90 days of my start date.
