This tutorial is to help players determine which career will be best to suit the Sims in ''[[The Sims 3]]''. Essentially, what job suits with a Sim depends on their [[trait]]s, which simply determine their [[Lifetimelifetime Wishwish]], and their current [[Wishwish]].
 
==Profit==
Line 6:
 
==Lifetime Wish==
Almost all [[career]]s in all branches as well as [[profession]]s have Lifetime Wishes, with the exception of [[Education]], [[Daycare]], [[Band]], [[Art Appraiser]], [[Video Game Developer]], and [[BandSports Agent]]. If the players are willing to fulfill Sims' Lifetimelifetime Wishwish, following it will be the best option for them.
 
Some other Lifetime Wishes can also determine the job for Sims as self-employed:
*Alchemist: Alchemy Artisan
*Angler: Presenting the Perfect Private Aquarium
*Band: Golden Tongue / Golden Fingers, Master of the Arts, One Sim Band
*Bot Builder: More than a Machine
*Gardener: The Perfect Garden, Greener Gardens
*Horseman: Jockey
*Inventor: Descendant of da Vinci, Monster Maker
Line 17 ⟶ 19:
*Painter: Illustrious Author, Master of the Arts, Visionary, Descendant of da Vinci
*Photographer: World-Class Gallery, Visionary
*Scuba Diver: Deep Sea Diver
*Sculptor: Descendant of da Vinci
*Writer: Illustrious Author, Professional Author
 
Thus, when a Sim doesn't have a Lifetimelifetime Wishwish for a particular career or even [[skill career]], consider employing them in the preceding careers. Of course, players are free to do one's will.
 
==Traits==
Other than Lifetime Wish, traits will also help determine the suitable jobs. Here are the traits that will be helpful for certain careers:

==Lifetime Rewards==
Some [[Lifetimelifetime Rewardreward]]s are very helpful with Sims' jobs, depending on what they do for their living. Most of these rewards have impact to some careers, while no benefits in other careers.
 
;Basic careers
All base-gamerabbit hole careers as well as [[Film]] from ''[[Late Night]]'' are quite simple and straightforward. '''Professional Slacker''' enables Sims to slack off without reducing their performance as well as the risk of being demoted. '''Office Hero''' makes Sims build their relationship with coworkers while at work twice as fast. '''Multi-Tasker''' will also be helpful, and '''Vacationer''' enables Sims to take any day-offs as they please.

;Band
'''The Next Big Thing''' is the only specific reward that is useful for Sims who form a band, which is to earn more cash from [[gig]]s.
