Suboxone & Drug Testing

I am about to try and get a job as an electrician and even though the oxy's I'm on right now are prescribed for tapering they can't hire me because they may inhibit my ability to do the job safely.  I know they won't but anyway...     Does suboxone show up as anything on a urine test for jobs and such?  Basically I want to know if I can get a decent job on suboxone or should I go grab a spatula at wendy's till I'm off of them?

Thanks for the info.   I'm bout to finish my tapering and will be on suboxone within 2 weeks.  I want to try and get the job but was scared because if I popped pos on the whiz quiz you can't ever apply there again.  Basically wanted to know if I should wait till after I am done with sub or if I should go ahead and apply after I am on the sub. Just didn't want to blow a shot for a good job
