the touchy subject of drug testing

I need to know if a company does drug testing but I'm scared that if I ask when I apply they'll throw my application away because they'll think I do drugs. what do hiring managers think when they are asked about drug testing? Am I better off not talking about it and just making sure that I'm clean if I'm job hunting?

Almost all employers require drug test and many are required to do so by law because of their industry or the position. Expect to be drug tested for every position you apply for

Great question Will - I personally think that you shouldn't mention it to employers, as it might tip them off you're concerned about passing the drug test in the first place!
