Tbh, most all employers give a pre-employment drug test. You should have expected it, and be happy if they don’t

Drug screening is actually quite rare (less than 2% of jobs). Nowhere close to most employers except in certain industries or job types https://americanaddictioncenters.org/blog/analysis-employer-drug-testing

Ya I should have asked first. I’m in transportation and logistics, and most all employers (and DOT) require one. We are actually drug tested and the employer waits for the results before the interview is scheduled 🤷🏻♀️

Quick fix. $20 online. Stuff it in ur boot or crotch. Don’t get caught like me my first time. But if you do it literally does not matter they don’t tell other employers

Quick fix works ok for low end labs but for any hospital jobs or government jobs the labs will be able to tell it's fake. Quickluck will pass almost any lab it's a lot more expensive but it was worth it to not have to worry.

Yes, it is legal for an employer to require a job applicant take a drug test even if they did not notify you that one was required ahead of time.
