I plan on goin out tonight and drinking. Tomorrow morning i have a job interview at 10 am and then that night i find out if i get the job. Once im hired i believe i have 24 hrs to take a drug test. Will the alcohol show up in the drug test. Im assuming its a pee in a container kind of thing.

If they do test for alcohol it would only show up if you drank that morning, or had an enourmous amount the night before. Alcohol metabolizes very quickly, at about an hour per drink (i.e. 12 oz beer, 5oz wine, or 1oz hard alcohol) So if you drink from 8pm til 2 am and have six drinks the first drink will be gone by 9, second by 10 etc. if you have 12 drinks between 12 and 2am they will show up the next morning, I know someone who drank heavy and got a DUI on the way to work at 10 am after a wreck where her tire went out. Just refrain for the 24 hrs you have to test and you will be okay. Pot on the other hand can stay in your system for weeks, even months for heavy users. Coke, crank are usually out in two days. LSD is usually very difficult to test on a standard test....just about impossible. Not that you do any of that stuff ;)
By the way, be carefull you don't smell like the alcohol from the night before as that would end the interview. You may not even know if you do...it comes out of your pores. Have a friend smell check you. Don't go to crazy, end drinking early, drink lots of water (you don't want to be your best in an interview while nursing a hangover) If the job is really important you may want to wait until the night after the drug test and celebrate your new job in style.

If they test or it, and your body hasn't had enough time to metabolize the alcohol it will show up. Alcohol doesn't stay in your your system for days or weeks like other drugs can. If you have an interview at 10 AM, I'd make it an early night. It will be hard to give a good interview with a hangover or still smelling like booze.

Yes if its a pee in the bottle thing. Just wait to go out after the test to be on the safe side. Also it depends on the job you are trying to rather they even care if you drink or not. I wouldn't worry.

Who cares, as long as you're of legal age to drink, and you're not under the influence during the interview or drug screening, you'll be fine, they do a series of different tests when you urine in the cup, alcohol, weed, coke, heroin, whatever else there be

No because alcohol is not a drug, and to be on the safe side drink a lot of vingear and pickle juice, that works, I NO FROM EXPERIENCE

Usually, alcohol takes 24 hours to leave your system.

They don't test for alcohol in the urinalysis, but they could give you a breathalizer test, so keep that in mind.
