Amazon requires pre-employment drug testing. For a little while I was a bit mystified as to how they got the information and took the test. But it’s pretty simple really, and here’s how they do it.
Amazon Drug Test

- Drug test for Amazon is completely dependent on what kind of job you have and where it takes place.
- The most common type of drug test is a urine test.
- However, some positions may require a mouth swap or hair follicle test as well.

If you pass both rounds, they’ll invite you to continue with a further competency-based interview.
