Sims receive a phone call opportunity regularly between 1 and 3 days. If ''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]]'' is installed, celebrity opportunities are received regularly every day. The players may cancel an opportunity received from phone, and the same opportunity will be 75% less likely to be received in 5 days after cancelling it. The players can suppress opportunity in the game option whenever they don't feel like receiving opportunities in the game.
{{Info|Bug|2=With ''[[The Sims 3: Into the Future]]'', it's much harder to receive non-''Into the Future'' skill opportunities from a phone call as the dialog rarely appears.<ref>[http://www.carls-sims-4-guide.com/forum/index.php?topic=18796.0 Phone/Opportunity bug]</ref><ref>[http://www.carls-sims-4-guide.com/forum/index.php?topic=18422.0 Can't Receive Phone Opportunities]</ref><ref>A video showing the bug is seen [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pE2eNrvWpvg here]</ref>

==Opportunity rewards==
Upon completing an opportunity, Sims may be given a variety of rewards. The same opportunity always gives the same rewards, except for the amount of variable cash. Variable cash are usually rewarded for opportunities that require Sims to deliver certain crafted objects. As such, the amount of variable cash is specified by the quality of the objects brought. The calculation is as following:
* For cooked meals, the cash depends on the quality per dish: §1 (horrifying), §2 (putrid), §4 (foul), §5 (bad), §50 (neutral), §100 (nice), §200 (very nice), §300 (great), §400 (excellent), §500 (outstanding), §700 (perfect).
* For books, the cash depends on the quality per book: §100 (flop); §1,000 (normal); §2,500 (hit); §7,000 (best seller).
* For paintings, the total value is multiplied by 4.
* For fish, the total value is multiplied by 10.
* For harvestables, the total value is multiplied by 10.
* For rocks, gems, and metals; the total value is multiplied by 1.5.
* For insects and butterflies, the total value is multiplied by 4.
* For relics, the total value is multiplied by 2.
* For photographs, the total value is multiplied by 10.
* For nectar bottles, the total value is multiplied by 2.
* For inventions, the total value is multiplied by 1.5.
* For scraps, the total value is multiplied by 1.25.
* For sculptures, the total value is multiplied by 2.
* For spirits, the total value is multiplied by 1.25.
* For seashells, the total value is multiplied by 2.
In addition, many [[Trait (The Sims 3)|traits]] and [[lifetime reward]]s benefit Sims with higher outcome:
* Opportunistic lifetime reward increases rewards with calculable values (money, job performance, etc.) by 100%.
* [[Perceptive]] trait increases cash and job performance rewards from completing Investigator opportunities by 30%.{{Vgversion|TS3:A}}
* Next Big Thing lifetime reward increases cash and celebrity point rewards from band opportunities by 15%.{{Vgversion|TS3:LN}}
* Perfect Host lifetime reward increases rewards from hosting [[SimPort]] opportunities by 100% if any member of the household has this lifetime reward. The benefit doesn't stack with more members having the lifetime reward.{{Vgversion|TS3:ST}}
* Fearless Voyager lifetime reward increases rewards from performing SimPort opportunities by 50%.{{Vgversion|TS3:ST}}
* "Basil" moodlet increases opportunity rewards by 10%.{{Vgversion|TS3:UL}}
Sims may fail in opportunities that require the Sims to deliver special opportunity objects in their [[inventory]] by selling, deleting, or losing them. In that case, the opportunity will end prematurely and Sims will be penalized with money to compensate the loss.

===The Sims 3: World Adventures===
Adventure opportunities are received either by checking for adventures on a job board at the [[base camp]] or from phone. When the player sends multiple Sims on an adventure, only one Sim may obtain the unique adventure opportunities at a time. Other Sims will only receive generic repeatable opportunities; for example, an opportunity that requires them to collect some [[Gem collecting|gems]] or [[Metal collecting|metals]]. Unique adventure opportunities are only received once per household, while generic repeatable opportunities are generally repeatable for Sims.

==Trivia==
* [[Part-time job]]s and [[Skill career|self-employed careers]] do not have any career opportunities. In addition, several professions also do not have opportunities, i.e. Architectural Designer, Firefighter, Stylist, Daycare, and Lifeguard.
* Riding, Science, and Social Networking skills do not have any skill opportunities.
* In many collecting opportunities, the number of required collectible to collect is randomly between a specified range, such as 5 to 15 pieces of copper. The number doesn't persist, however. When the opportunity requires Sims to collect 10 pieces of copper, saving and reloading the game may change the number randomly; it may be fewer or more. This can be used as an advantage for rarer collectibles that are hard to find, such as mummitomium.
