Is the drug testing portion of the application still in effect?

I find the concept an invasion of basic privacy and while I'd love to work at USDS someday I can't see myself submitting to such a process.

There's no drug testing. I just started a month ago. There is a background check.

Nice to hear! Background check is a little more understandable - thanks for letting me know
