How to Pick Your Sim's Career Using Cheats in The Sims 3

Press the keys: Ctrl(Control), Shift, and C! This will bring up a long blue bar along the top of the screen.

Make sure you can see the bar, Or it will not work because you will be typing into nothing!

If you can see the bar, that's good! Type into the bar: "testingcheatsenabled true" Take off the marks, or it will say: 'Command not found' Also, make sure there is a space between true and testingcheatsenabled!

When you have typed it in, the bar will disappear. Then, zoom out, and move round to the mailbox so the mailbox is in view.

Press shift, while holding it in, click on the mailbox, then let go of shift. If the normal choices come up, you have done it wrong. Keep trying if it keeps going wrong!

If different choices come up than the normal ones, that's right! Then click the button:'Set Career' and there will be quite a few categories. There will also be more, click on more if one of the options do not satisfy you.

Click on of the categories that you think the job you/your Sim wants would be in.

Then pick your job! Simple, really, isn't it? and, Ta Da! You have a new job!
