Ok so what are banks typical policies on drug testing after the initial pre employment drug test? I know from experience last summer that they do have a random drug testing clause in their employment handbook, but do banks actually follow through with that?For example, should I expect to get tested again in a few weeks when full-time training starts (even though the pre employment test was taken just a few weeks ago)? Anything you guys have to add would be helpful. Thanks.

It's probably gonna very hugely by company. If you have friends in the company, I'd discretely ask them. Some companies probably do, some just keep that in the handbook in case you show up reeking and they wanna test you. If you're really concerned, this isn't the funnest solution, but don't do drugs.
I think you answered your own question there. But I'll add my two cents: Don't do drugs (at least if you know your firm does drug tests and randomly, at that.)
Well based on that response id say your input is worth much more than two cents. Damn near enlightening
That made me chuckle so I'll throw you a silver banana.
Next Drug Test (Originally Posted: 05/22/2014)
I was wondering how often BB do drug tests and how soon after the pre-hire drug screen will they do it again.
I already took my drug test and came off clean, but in two weeks, I will be flying to Amsterdam before I start working in August. Thoughts? Or should I just avoid the temptation?
I believe there is only a pre employment test. no ones gonna go through the hassel of testing you again esp in such a short amount of time.
I never heard of any bank doing a secondary drug test. Smoke to your hearts desire in Amsterdam - just make sure you passed the test with no problems, since I've heard instances of banks losing the test.
If you already pissed clean the other week then spending a few days in Amsterdam won't do anything that a day or two in the gym/sauna can't fix if you're really worried about it.
Smoke a big one in honor of WSO.
Did you already get your results back? I was called in to retake my piss test like a day or two later because it was too diluted.
Make sure you passed and smoke to your hearts desire in the Dam. Even if you get retested and it's more than a week or so after you return you should be clean. It's up to 30 days and that tends to be if you're a heavy smoker. If you're doing a weekend there and are clean now and don't after, you're fine.
It reminds me of my first job out of school. After the my boss gave me the offer (repe shop, HR didn't extend offers, your boss did) I asked what I needed to do: background tests, etc. and when I said drug test he just looked confused and said "well I suppose we don't encourage drugs but there's no test." I knew right then I picked the right place. Gotta love San Fran.
