I accepted an offer from BlackRock (yes, the SF office) in March and it was hair. I was shocked b/c everyone always says it's hair on here to mess with people, but it actually was. It can be a pain just because (for me at least) the places that you could go to submit a hair sample were few and far between compared to urine, so I ended up having to drive over 45 minutes each way. It's not a huge deal though, I don't think hair tests actually go back more than ~90 days as it is.

 

Did you take the drug test in June before or when you started working? Or did you take the test close to when you got the offer? I did ecstacy on NYE, and I have to verbally accept 3/3. If they test me in June, I'm in the clear. But if they test me now, I'm worried about passing the test. They didn't test your nails right?
