That depends on the type of job you are getting. In the United States, cannabis over 0.3% remains illegal at the federal level. This means that you may get tested for a state or federal job. You may also be required to undergo a background check. Certain cannabis companies, like the ones in New York, are not allowed to drug test applicants for cannabis. The answer depends on where you live and the type of job you are going for and will remain that way even after Federal legalization happens.
