Do you only fail if you have narcotics in your system? What about Zoloft and other anti-depressants?

it depends what they are looking for. If its for a job, they mostly look for bad drugs (heroin, cocaine, methamphetamines, steroids etc.). They places have little forms that they can circle which drugs to look for. THC was there also

whats the test for?

If the test reveals that you are a smoker, you won't get hired where I work. Our health plan forbids smokers... When you take the test, they'll ask what if any drugs you are on...

And if you say, "Oh, just a little budding coke habit I've been nursing these past few months," what kind of a response do you get? :D

The drug testing place my wife's company uses will call you if they find prescription drugs not previously disclosed by you. If you can come up with a legit prescription, you're fine. If not, it will be noted and you wont be hired.

If you want to get hire by my company, they will cut a little bit of your hair and they can check for anything you took in the last 90 days.

Even after you get hire, the company can and will test you or anyone for anything at any time.
