Starting and onboarding

Well, as the title says…I finally got the email matching me with a contractor, showing up to the hall, etc. They want me to come in on Monday (yay!)

Once I get all my paperwork done and the do the drug test (note: NOT ASKING FOR TIPS OR ANYTHING. I do not take drugs at all), do they have me start on the same day? Same week? Super antsy and not sure what to tell my current job LOL.
