QUESTION 10 OF 30

We require all candidates to complete 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. Institutions 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, 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.

If passing a drug test will be an issue for you, it is best to wait until you are clean to apply to a Juvenile Correction Officer position. Most institutions require a pre-employment background investigation and drug test, so you must pass both to work in this profession.

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