The Sims 3
Business is one of the basic career tracks in The Sims 3. It's the only career track that doesn't require any skills for promotion. Sims can be employed from newspaper, computer, or office building. Because skills no longer contribute the performance factor to Business career, attending work and building relationships with boss and coworkers are more important. Schmoozer trait will be suitable for Sims who work in Business. Sims must hold meetings many times as a performance factor in this career track.

Sims can pull prank with their coworkers and boss inside the office building as long as the target is working inside. A successful prank will give a relationship boost to the target, and if the target is the boss, the career performance will also increase. On the other hand, a failed prank will give a relationship drop to the target, and if the target is the boss, the career performance will decrease.

Career Levels
Description: "Synergy! Efficiency! Planfulness! If the mere sound of these industry buzzwords gets you buzzing, then a career in business might just be the right fit for you!"

Management Branch

Investor Branch
Description: "It takes Simoleons to make Simoleons. Optimize your investments through diligent research and try to turn piles of Simoleons into even bigger piles of Simoleons!"
