QUESTION 33 OF 35

We require all candidates to submit to a pre-employment drug screen. Will there be an issue passing the drug screen?

The interviewer advises you of their pre-employment drug screen and asks if you'll pass, so they can decide if they want to continue with you in the hiring process. Companies invest a lot of money hiring employees, and they want to avoid sending you for a drug test if you will not pass.

As with any interview question, you want to focus on being completely honest in your response. As embarrassing as it may be, if you do not think you will pass the drug test, you need to let the interviewer know that now. If passing the drug test will not be an issue, ensure the interviewer that you will pass the test because you do not use drugs.

"No, there will not be an issue with passing a drug test. I do not use drugs and never plan to."

"There will not be an issue passing the drug screen as I do not take illicit or prescription drugs."
