Nope.
You can not be forced to testify against yourself.
Otherwise it's obstruction of justice.
..... its for a job. im sure someone will be willing to answer and not plead the 5th, plead the 5th and you get no job.

Just don't tell them you have ever smoked pot....
.i'm more then sure it's out of your system by now and there is no way for
them to find out unless they question EVERYONE you know.
and that's something there not going to do the gov is lazy
and they only do investigations like that when you are found out doing pot......lol i know my bro works for the gov and he use to be a BIG pot head

They might not give you a job.
Nothing else can happen.
If you told your best friends aunt about what you did, you better not make a fuzz about it and shorten the procedure.
If it's not a backwards thinking hardassed CIA adjudicator, it is still going to be a gamble, but it's going to be one anyhow...

Way to be wrong.
Almost any job you can't get if you are proved to be smoking pot.

I worked for the Government of Canada in Border Services while I was actively using things worse than pot.
But they never asked, or tested... seeing as it wasn't really relevant. All I did was office work and talking to immigrants.

Obama smoked pot.
Bush did cocaine.
Clinton didn't inhale marijuana, but he tasted it.
Yeah, you're OK.

There was actually a thing lifted not so long ago allowing people who had used drugs to join the FBI. It made the news here.
I just remember thinking "Shouldn't we be moving the other way?"
-EDIT-
But if they find traces in you NO.

What job are you trying to get, anyways? Is this something immediate or in the long run?
